MongoUK Conference

Skills Matter and 10gen are very pleased to announce the popular MongoUK conference IS BACK - coming to London on September 19th! MongoUK is a one-day conference dedicated to the open source, non-relational database MongoDB. We are still working on the programme, but feature both introductory and advanced talks on MongoDB schema design, indexing, administration, replication, sharding...

MongoDB for Administrators and Operations

This course covers everything a database administrator needs to know to successfully deploy and maintain MongoDB databases and shard clusters. In addition to deployment and maintenance, course topics will include diagnosing performance issues, importing and exporting data, and establishing the proper backup and restore routines. We'll present ideal hardware configurations and discuss common pitfalls for new deployments. The course also includes an overview of the MongoDB CRUD API, the command shell, and the drivers.

MongoDB for Developers

This two-day course spans the MongoDB gamut, covering CRUD, schema design, performance tuning, map-reduce, replication, and sharding.

This course prepares you to:

• Understand the MongoDB command shell, query API, and driver tools.
• Design schemas that take advantage of the document data model and of MongoDB’s core features.
• Understand how typical RDBMS schemas can be migrated to MongoDB.
• Build efficient indexes and troubleshoot slow queries.
• Configure both master/slave replication and replica sets.

Ian Robinson and Jim Webber's Neo4J Tutorial

"Graph databases like Neo4j are an esoteric and powerful member of the NOSQL family. For highly connected data, graph databases can be thousands of times faster than relational databases, making Neo4j popular for managing complex data across many domains from finance to social, and telecoms to geospatial. This intensive two-day tutorial provides a mixture of theory and hands-on practical sessions to demonstrate the capabilities of graph data and the Neo4j database. Find out more here.

Brian Sletten's Semantic Web Technologies Bootcamp

Brian Sletten's five day Semantic Web Technologies Bootcamp provides a broad, example-driven and compelling vision of computing's future. Organisations are struggling with data integration solutions that operate at the wrong level of abstraction or are shackled to legacy systems with no idea of how to modernize incrementally. Their service-oriented architectures decompose business processes into services without the ability to identify and protect the information that flows through these services. In this course, you will learn how the technical and business value of Web semantics is available and useful today behind firewalls as well as on the public Web.

Udi Dahan's Advanced Distributed Systems Design with SOA

This very intensive 5-day workshop will help you take the pain out of designing large-scale distributed systems. New technologies make it easier to comply with today’s communications and security standards, but they won't magically provide you with a robust and scalable system. Join Udi for a course packed with the wisdom of companies like SUN, Amazon and eBay. Tried-and-true theories and fallacies will be shown, helping you to avoid costly mistakes. Communications patterns like publish/subscribe and correlated one-way request/response will be demonstrated, in conjunction with advanced object-oriented state management practices for long-running workflows. If you enjoy deep architectural discussion, join! To find out more, please go here
