MongoUK Conference

Skills Matter and 10gen are very pleased to announce the popular MongoUK conference IS BACK - coming to London on September 19th!

We are still working on the programme, but feature both introductory and advanced talks on MongoDB schema design, indexing, administration, replication, sharding... (follow #mongouk for programme updates). Find out more here.

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.
  • Determine when to set up a shard cluster and how to configure it.
  • Troubleshoot common issues and failure scenarios.
