Introduction to MongoDB

MongoDB is a fast, scalable database that was designed for web development.

This talk will cover:

  • Scaling with MongoDB (replica pairs, master/slave, sharding)
  • Getting started - CRUD and the JavaScript shell
  • Creating schemas for a document-oriented DB
  • Interesting features for developers (capped collections, file storage, upserts and more)
MongoDB's goals are:
  1. Be easy to learn and simple to deploy
  2. Have the scalability BigTable clones but with dynamic queries
  3. Have the speed of key value stores but with secondary indexes
  4. Be a floor wax and a dessert topping
Maybe not that last one. MongoDB is being used by SourceForge, EA Games, Github, the New York Times, and tons of other companies.
