Over the past years The Next Web Conference has become a premier conference on internet life and its technologies. Amsterdam is of course the ideal place for such a conference :-). It is likely that the Amazon Web Services will be used by many of the participants for their compute, storage, database and other cloud resource needs.

For the past year, 5G cell technology has generated a lot of excitement–and a lot of hype. If carriers won’t build cell towers for current technology, they aren’t likely to build even more towers for 5G. 5G isn’t ideal for that, and the first indications are that it will require more power than current technologies.

This operation is quite expensive but our database can run it in a few milliseconds or less, thanks to several optimizations that allow the node to execute most of them in memory with no or little access to mass storage.
