Learning MongoDB
What you'll learn
- Install MongoDB on Linux and Windows, both manually and using packages
- Configure MongoDB to autostart and access your data using the command line and GUI clients
- Learn how to manage databases, including creation, pruning, backup, and recovery to fulfil your big data needs
- Master how to create map and reduce functions using step-by-step diagrams and examples
- Understand replica sets, failover verification, responsiveness, and load balancing for large scale applications
- Discover how redundancy and filesystem choices impact security
- Delve into advanced topics such as monitoring, automated deployment, sharding, and caching to boost your application
Requirements
- You need to have some background with traditional data store technologies, and by the end of this course, you will be able to manage and analyze large datasets that empower you to make informed business decisions.
Description
Businesses now have access to more data than ever before, and a key challenge is how to ensure that data can be easily accessed and used efficiently. MongoDB makes it possible to store and process large sets of data in ways that drive up business value. The flexibility of unstructured storage, combined with robust querying and post processing functionality, make MongoDB a compelling solution for enterprise big data needs.
Learning MongoDB will show you how to install, configure, and secure MongoDB to meet the demands of modern enterprise data systems. You will quickly master data management, queries, post processing, and essential enterprise redundancy requirements to achieve high availability and fast response times.
The course begins with installation instructions and moves on to the essential features, covering advanced data manipulation and high availability. Then, topics such as backup and recovery are covered. Advanced data analysis is demonstrated using both MapReduce and the MongoDB aggregation framework with clear diagrams and examples.
As we move to the end of the course, we delve into SSL security and programmatic access using various languages. You'll also learn about MongoDB's built-in redundancy and scale features, replica sets, and sharding.
This video course will take you on a journey from all the downright basics of MongoDB to the deployment of a reliable, secure, and enterprise-ready big data solution.
