What is MongoDB?
โ€ข One of the new breed of non-relational
  (โ€œNoSQLโ€) databases
โ€ข A document store
  โ€ข Instead of flat records (sets of scalars), stores
    JSON documents
    โ€ข Scalars
    โ€ข Array-valued fields
    โ€ข Document-valued fields
โ€ข Open source
Why MongoDB?
โ€ข Availability
  โ€ข Easy replication
    โ€ข In principle, similar to MySQL master-slave
  โ€ข Automated failover
    โ€ข Failure of the โ€œprimaryโ€ (current master) is detected,
      and a โ€œsecondaryโ€ (slave) is selected and takes
      over automatically
Why MongoDB?
โ€ข Scalability
  โ€ข Easy replication
    โ€ข Scale reads by permitting reads from secondaries
  โ€ข Built-in sharding
    โ€ข Scale writes by spreading load across multiple
      shards โ€“ each is a replica set
    โ€ข Shards can be added or removed at will
      โ€ข No penalty for guessing wrong at start
    โ€ข System automatically re-balances shards if they
      grow disproportionately
Why MongoDB?
โ€ข Simplicity
  โ€ข Simple configuration
    โ€ข Very few startup parameters
  โ€ข Flexible document model
    โ€ข Structured data
    โ€ข Doesnโ€™t force unnecessary normalization
  โ€ข Natural-looking language bindings
    โ€ข Client drivers use native language constructions to
      represent documents
MongoDB is not an RDBMS
โ€ข Sacrifices made for horizontal scalability
  โ€ข Eventual Consistency
    โ€ข Secondaries are not replicas maintained by
      distributed transactions
  โ€ข No transactions
  โ€ข No joins
  โ€ข No SQL
    โ€ข Simpler QBE-style query language
Where does MongoDB Run?
โ€ข Designed for commodity hardware
โ€ข Can run on O&O infrastructure or in cloud
  environments
โ€ข Runs on Windows and most flavors of linux
  โ€ข OSX works, but is not recommended for
   production
Where can I find out more?

  • 1. Chris Westin @cwestin63 ยฉ Copyright 2010 10gen Inc.
  • 2. What is MongoDB? โ€ข One of the new breed of non-relational (โ€œNoSQLโ€) databases โ€ข A document store โ€ข Instead of flat records (sets of scalars), stores JSON documents โ€ข Scalars โ€ข Array-valued fields โ€ข Document-valued fields โ€ข Open source
  • 3. Why MongoDB? โ€ข Availability โ€ข Easy replication โ€ข In principle, similar to MySQL master-slave โ€ข Automated failover โ€ข Failure of the โ€œprimaryโ€ (current master) is detected, and a โ€œsecondaryโ€ (slave) is selected and takes over automatically
  • 4. Why MongoDB? โ€ข Scalability โ€ข Easy replication โ€ข Scale reads by permitting reads from secondaries โ€ข Built-in sharding โ€ข Scale writes by spreading load across multiple shards โ€“ each is a replica set โ€ข Shards can be added or removed at will โ€ข No penalty for guessing wrong at start โ€ข System automatically re-balances shards if they grow disproportionately
  • 5. Why MongoDB? โ€ข Simplicity โ€ข Simple configuration โ€ข Very few startup parameters โ€ข Flexible document model โ€ข Structured data โ€ข Doesnโ€™t force unnecessary normalization โ€ข Natural-looking language bindings โ€ข Client drivers use native language constructions to represent documents
  • 6. MongoDB is not an RDBMS โ€ข Sacrifices made for horizontal scalability โ€ข Eventual Consistency โ€ข Secondaries are not replicas maintained by distributed transactions โ€ข No transactions โ€ข No joins โ€ข No SQL โ€ข Simpler QBE-style query language
  • 7. Where does MongoDB Run? โ€ข Designed for commodity hardware โ€ข Can run on O&O infrastructure or in cloud environments โ€ข Runs on Windows and most flavors of linux โ€ข OSX works, but is not recommended for production
  • 8. Where can I find out more? โ€ข Tutorials โ€ข http://try.mongodb.org โ€ข http://openmymind.net/2011/3/28/The-Little-MongoDB- Book/ โ€ข Documentation wiki โ€ข http://www.mongodb.org/ โ€ข mongodb-user on Google groups โ€ข http://groups.google.com/group/mongodb-user โ€ข 10gen โ€ข http://www.10gen.com/ โ€ข Presentations, webinars โ€ข http://www.10gen.com/what-is-mongodb โ€ข Support, training, consulting
