Session: MongoDB: The New M in Your LAMP Stack

Thursday, 14:15 - 15:05
Track: Cloud & nosql

MongoDB (from "humongous") is a high-performance, open source, schema-free, non-relational, document-oriented database. Trading off a few traditional features of databases (notably joins and transactions) in order to achieve much better performance, MongoDB is fast, scalable, and designed for web development.  Mongo is in use at SourceForge, Etsy, foursquare, GitHub, NYTimes, Justin.tv, Disqus, Business Insider, and more.

This talk will cover:
  • Getting started - CRUD and the JavaScript shell
  • Creating schemas for a document-oriented DB
  • Scaling with MongoDB (replica pairs, master/slave, sharding)
  • Interesting features for developers (geospatial indexing, capped collections, file storage, upserts and more)

Prerequisites

This is an introductory talk geared towards web developers. It assumes at least a passing familiarity with relational databases and some experience building applications with them.
