Webinar: An Enterprise Architect's View of MongoDB

MongoDB is more than a great database; it gives Enterprise Architects new capabilities to solve for previously difficult architectural requirements much more easily. In this webinar, we... Explore real life challenges enterprises face with case studies of their solutions Consider how best to introduce MongoDB in the enterprise Give an overview of how to optimize the use of MongoDB

Ops Jumpstart: MongoDB Administration 101

New to MongoDB? We'll provide an overview of installation, high availability through replication, scale out through sharding, and options for monitoring and backup. No prior knowledge of MongoDB is assumed. This session will jumpstart your knowledge of MongoDB operations, providing you with context for the rest of the day's content.

Webinar: Deploying Your First App with MongoDB Management Service (MMS)

MongoDB Management Service now makes it easy for you to deploy, monitor, backup and scale MongoDB on the infrastructure of your choice. In this presentation, we show you how to use some of the new features and functionality of MMS.

Dev Jumpstart: Build Your First App with MongoDB

New to MongoDB? This talk will introduce the philosophy and features of MongoDB. We’ll discuss the benefits of the document-based data model that MongoDB offers by walking through how one can build a simple app to store books. We’ll cover inserting, updating, and querying the database of books. This session will jumpstart your knowledge of MongoDB development, providing you with context for the rest of the day's content.

MongoDB and Hadoop: Driving Business Insights

MongoDB and Hadoop can work together to solve big data problems facing today's enterprises. We will take an in-depth look at how the two technologies complement and enrich each other with complex analyses and greater intelligence. We will take a deep dive into the MongoDB Connector for Hadoop and how it can be applied to enable new business insights with MapReduce, Pig, and Hive, and demo a Spark application to drive product recommendations.

Lightning Talk: Advanced Sharding

Attend this talk if you're currently sharding your deployment or thinking about doing so. It will cover what to expect and what you should consider during the process, with references to basic sharding resources. It will also cover what to look for when running a sharded cluster. Finally, it will provide an overview of a new tool that makes understanding chunk sizes easy.

Using BSON Beyond MongoDB

In this talk we will discuss uses of BSON outside of MongoDB -- for example for IPC in web services infrastructure and mobile applications. Some standalone BSON command line utilities will be demoed.

Webinar: Preparing for Peak Holiday Season: Ensuring a Seamless Customer Experience

As peak season for retail approaches, you are likely anxious, with good reason! Black Friday, Cyber Monday and the holiday season generates 80% of the traffic to your site for the year. With that comes the challenge of maintaining availability of your platform. A moment of downtime or poor performance can result in significant loss of revenue in this critical period. In this webinar, we demonstrate how MongoDB can ensure your e-commerce site runs smoothly during this key season. We cover scaling the critical components of your business, such as your product catalog and user activity logging. And then we dive into how you can easily monitor key performance metrics to ensure that you aren’t hitting capacity. Finally, we review how you can scale elastically with just a few clicks. Additionally, to learn more about new retail challenges and how MongoDB addresses them, download the white paper below: SERVING THE DIGITALLY ORIENTED CONSUMER

Securing Your MongoDB Deployment

Security is more critical than ever with new computing environments in the cloud and expanding access to the internet. There are a number of security protection mechanisms available for MongoDB to ensure you have a stable and secure architecture for your deployment. Dave Erickson will walk through general security threats to databases and specifically how they can be mitigated for MongoDB deployments. Rob Moore will then go into depth on the specific topic of setting up and running MongoDB with TLS/SSL and x.509 authentication covering how it works and common errors he's encountered in the field.

Agility and Scalability with MongoDB

MongoDB has taken a clear lead in adoption among the new generation of databases, including the enormous variety of NoSQL offerings. A key reason for this lead has been a unique combination of agility and scalability. Agility provides business units with a quick start and flexibility to maintain development velocity, despite changing data and requirements. Scalability maintains that flexibility while providing fast, interactive performance as data volume and usage increase. We'll address the key organizational, operational, and engineering considerations to ensure that agility and scalability stay aligned at increasing scale, from small development instances to web-scale applications. We will also survey some key examples of highly-scaled customer applications of MongoDB.

Visualizing Mobile Broadband with MongoDB

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Speed Test mobile app is a crowdsource project on mobile network performance, collecting millions of samples per month. In order to make the collected information valuable to consumers, a new approach was needed to present this rich resource in timely and intuitive manner. The Visualizing Mobile Broadband project is a web application that presents mobile network information using maps and interactive metrics. Our small team of developers turned to MongoDB for a solution that is flexible and scalable as volume increases and needs evolve. We present our project from conceptual framework to working prototype and highlight organizational obstacles, geospatial and technical issues encountered along the way.
