Couchbase is a NoSQL database oriented toward Documents developed as Open Source. Tugdual will present, based on demonstrations:

Java application development (and/or others according to taste) on NoSQL by explaining the benefits of solutions
based on flexible data structures (JSON Documents)
the use of Map Reduce for creating complex queries
the setup and administration of a cluster, and the associated challenges
