Building your first MongoDB application
This workshop will introduce the features of MongoDB by building a simple location-based application using MongoDB. The tutorial will cover the basics of MongoDB’s document model, query language including geospatial, aggregation and map-reduce frameworks and deployment architecture.
The tutorial will be divided into 4 sections:
- Data modeling with MongoDB: documents, collections and databases
- Querying your data: simple queries, geospatial queries, and text-searching
- Writes and updates: using MongoDB’s atomic update modifiers
- Trending and analytics: Using mapreduce and MongoDB’s aggregation framework
Besides the knowledge to start building their own applications with MongoDB, attendees will finish the session with a working application they use to check into locations around St. Louis from any HTML5 enabled phone!
