Session: MongoDB: Built For Speed
Instructor: Mitch Pirtle
Track: CMS Power Track
Audience: Developers & Content Creators
Why is the market shifting away from relational databases like MySQL, and shifting to non-relational databases like MongoDB? In a word: Speed. MongoDB is an open source project, launched in 2009. MongoDB bridges the gap between key-value stores (which are fast and highly scalable) and traditional RDBMS systems (which provide structured schemas and powerful queries). MongoDB is a scalable, high-performance, schema-free, document-oriented database. Written in C++, MongoDB features:
- Document-oriented storage (the simplicity and power of JSON-like data schemas)
- Dynamic queries
- Full index support, extending to inner-objects and embedded arrays
- Query profiling
- Fast, in-place updates
- Efficient storage of binary data large objects (e.g. photos and videos)
- Replication and fail-over support
- Auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability
- MapReduce for complex aggregation
- Commercial Support, Hosting, and Consulting
CMS Expo is pleased to welcome Mitch Pirtle to lead this dynamic learning session on MongoDB. MongoDB and other non-releational databases are giving developers and designers a powerful reason to make the switch from MySQL, and boost the performance of their Joomla! or Drupal-powered websites.
