Showcasing the Best In the CMS World

Session: MongoDB: Built For Speed
Date: Tuesday, May 4th, 2010
Time: 10:00 am - 11:30 am
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.

Key Points Covered:

• How MongoDB Works
• When To Use MongoDB (and when it's not)
• Examples of MongoDB In Action
• Why Is The Market Going Non-Relational?
• MongoDB Demo
• Q & A Session

Prerequisite: This session is for Advanced technical Users.
