MongoDB Days Silicon Valley: Using MongoDB with Adobe AEM Communities

Presented by Kevin Nennig, AEM Technical Instructor, Adobe Experience level: Introductory In Adobe Experience Manager 6.1, a new approach has been taken for user generated content (UGC) for better security, higher availability, and ease of use for community members and administrators. The Social Resource Provider API for AEM Communities can be implemented 3 different ways to create a UGC cloud, two of which use a MongoDB backend. Utilizing MongoDB, companies can implement an on prem UGC common store with a Mongo and a Solr server. UCG is then stored and accessed from this UGC cloud. In this session we’ll explore the Social Resource Provider framework and implement the Mongo Social Resource Provider (MSRP) for AEM Communities.

MongoDB Days Silicon Valley: Building an Artificial Intelligence Startup with MongoDB at x.ai

Presented by: Matt Casey, CTO and co-Founder, x.ai Experience level: Introductory x.ai is an artificial intelligence-based personal assistant that schedules meetings for you. You email with amy@x.ai as you would any other person – and she will carry out all the tedious email ping pong that comes along with arranging a meeting with other people. In this session, we'll describe where our data model began and how it evolved over time. We're solving a problem that involves multiple collections, types of documents and schemas. We will also discuss different queries we use and how we've managed to keep our data model sane. We will describe the high-level architecture of x.ai, including access patterns from internal Node.js apps using Mongoose and Scala modules.

Webinar: MongoDB in a Mainframe World

Presented with our partner infusion Mainframes remain an essential part of the computing fabric for many large organizations. The need to modernize existing applications, reduce costs, and deliver new services are driving optimization initiatives. MongoDB is being deployed as an Operational Data Store to complement the mainframe environment. During this webinar, Infusion and MongoDB shared their mainframe optimization experiences and best practices. These have been gained from working with a variety of organizations, including a case study from one of the world’s largest banks. MongoDB and Infusion bring a tested approach that provides a new way of modernizing mainframe applications, while keeping pace with the demand for new digital services. Our discussion centered around: How MongoDB is best suited for your mainframe optimization project Real-life use cases and lessons learned The key benefits you will realise A best practice approach to your optimization project, and getting started

MongoDB Days Silicon Valley: Data Analysis and MapReduce with MongoDB

Presented by Alexander Hendorf, CTO, Königsweg Experience level: Deep dive The MongoDB aggregation framework provides a means to calculate aggregated values without having to use map-reduce. While map-reduce is powerful, it is often more difficult than necessary for many simple aggregation tasks, such as totaling or averaging field values. In this talk, I will showcase how to use the built-in data-aggregation-pipelines for averages, summation, grouping, reshaping. You will learn how to work with documents, sub-documents, grouping by year, month, day and more.
