Our company was making a technical presentation at this event, but I was not involved in presenting and was there simply as an attendee.
Overall, I didn't find MongoDB Europe as valuable as other such conferences (eg IDUG DB2 or Oracle World). I think it would be greatly improved by extending it to at least three days and making all the additional content user presentations.
The keynote address by Prof Brian Cox was not very revelant and just barely touched on the tenuous link to MongoDB ... that some observatory data was hosted in MongoDB. Other than that, his talk had nothing to do with MongoDB and was a real waste of an hour in a one-day event.
The vendor presentations focused quite heavily on pushing their cloud solution, Atlas, and less on the release of MongoDB 3.4 than I had hoped.
Recordings of the presentations for "Shard 1" are available online:
- Welcome
Dev Ittycheria, CEO, MongoDB - MongoDB 3.4 preview and introduction to MongoDB Atlas
Eliot Horowitz, CTO and Co-founder, MongoDB - Debugging MongoDB Performance
Asya Kamsky, Lead Product Manager, MongoDB - Building WiredTiger
Keith Bostic, Senior Staff Engineer, MongoDB - Distributed Ledgers, Blockchain + MongoDB

Andrew Davidson, Product Manager, MongoDB - Who’s Helping Themselves To Your Data? Demystifying MongoDB’s Security Capabilities
Paul Done, Solutions Architect, MongoDB
Slides from the other presentations in Shards 2 and 3 are available here
The most interesting sessions for me were
Debugging MongoDB Performance
Instant Search from Amadeus
Comparison of Drivers
