IndexedDB with Parashuram Narasimhan
- August 30, 2012 · 6:00 PM
About the talk
IndexedDB is an API for client-side storage of significant amounts of structured data and for high performance searches on this data using indexes. While Web Storage (Local and Session Storage) is useful for storing smaller amounts of data, it is less useful for storing larger amounts of structured data. IndexedDB provides a solution.
In this presentation, Parashuram Narasimhan will start with an overview of the various client-side storage technologies available today and discuss where the IndexedDB idea came from. After that, he will give a detailed overview of the IndexedDB concepts complete with examples so you get a really good feel for the API. He will wrap up with a discussion on how you can use IndexedDB in production today.

Good practical overview of client side databases and database-like options, and the software packages available. Drilling down into the code kept it real.

@Ross: The address is indeed 706 Mission Street, not 760.
The Yelp office is located on the corner of 3rd Street and Mission Street above Rochester Big and Tall. If you are facing the store, walk to your left away from 3rd Street. Go through the black iron gates to your right and into the building.
