Speaking Sessions

  • Polyglot spatial with MongoDB

    1:15 PM Sunday   Room: 5501
    Spatial is a hot topic for all sorts of developers and MongoDB offers an easy way to get started. MongoDB enables search and checkin type applications - ranging from field resource management to social check-in applications. In this session we will load up a spatial database and then create web services using three different languages, Python, Java, and Node.JS. We will demonstrate the similarity and differences when getting the same functionality for a MongoDB REST-based web service. For each language I will show how to load the driver, authenticate, query, filter, and write to the database. By the end you will be amazed at the wonderful job the driver writers did on ease of use and native feel when writing code. You will also enjoy a demonstration of how easy it is to use MongoDB for your application.
