We’ll talk about document oriented databases.
You will see some of the core strengths (and challenges!) of using MongoDB to power your application. And, of course, some hands on demos!
This session is thin on power point. We'll try cover as much ground as time permits and get your familiar with the basic concepts that differentiate this technology from its competitors. Leave your SQL thinking behind and come see how things can be very different with MongoDB. 9:45 AM Saturday Room: R1-302

This session animates various concurrency challenges, and discusses common solutions in a code-free way with role-play. It builds scenarios using simple human interaction to bring out intuitive and deep understanding of concurrency.
