Recap: NYC MongoDB User Group Meetup
Earlier this week, the
NYC MongoDB User Group
met at Buddy Media to learn more about how three different companies were using
MongoDB
.
Trello
, an online organization and collaboration app, uses MongoDB alongside Node.js, Redis, and Backbone to run highly-responsive single-page applications, allowing multiple users to share information almost instantly on virtual project boards. You can view the
Trello presentation
and slides online
Michael Lysaght
and Oleksii Iepishkin, of
SecondMarket
, presented their open source tool Mongeez, a tool that helps to deploy data changes in MongoDB automatically without losing consistency with the existing codebase. (Mongeez is available on
Github
). SecondMarket helps to connect investors with alternative investment opportunities in over forty asset classes. Last but certainly not least, Erik Lubow and Russell Bradberry presented
SimpleReach
, a realtime analytics tool which uses recommendations to suggest content to online readers. SimpleReach uses Node.js and MongoDB schema design to enable dynamic collection creation and realtime data delivery. Photos from the meetup are available on the
MongoDB Flickr page
, and video footage from all three presentations can be found online. Not in NYC? Check out other
MUGs around the world
, and sign up for our
