m was at MongoSF.. the sharding demo was definitely cool, a lot of the other talks/demos were very good as well. overall a great conference, esp. for the price. thanks again 🙂 LikeLike Reply kristina says:  May 00, 0000 at 0:00 pm @Noah unfortunately, replica sets aren't ready yet. So, it was just 00 shards with no replication, which was actually kind of a problem because Amazon thought that we were DDOSing ourselves, so kept shutting down our instances, thus breaking the demo. About replica sets: I am totally in love with them, so if you're interested subscribe to my RSS feed because I'll be doing a blog post on how to use them ~0 seconds after they're available in the nightly build.
