Description

Officially endorsed by MongoDB, Inc., Practical MongoDB Aggregations helps you unlock the full potential of the MongoDB aggregation framework, including the latest features of MongoDB 7.0. This book provides practical, easy-to-digest principles and approaches for increasing your effectiveness in developing aggregation pipelines, supported by examples for building pipelines to solve complex data manipulation and analytical tasks. This book is customized for developers, architects, data analysts, data engineers, and data scientists with some familiarity with the aggregation framework. It begins by explaining the framework's architecture and then shows you how to build pipelines optimized for productivity and scale. Given the critical role arrays play in MongoDB's document model, the book delves into best practices for optimally manipulating arrays. The latter part of the book equips you with examples to solve common data processing challenges so you can apply the lessons you've learned to practical situations. By the end of this MongoDB book, you’ll have learned how to utilize the MongoDB aggregation framework to streamline your data analysis and manipulation processes effectively.

Your credits can be found in the subscription homepage - subscription.packtpub.com - clicking on ‘the my’ library dropdown and selecting ‘credits’.

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled?

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date?

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready?

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access?

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How is Early Access delivered?

Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.

How do I buy Early Access content?

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access?

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published.

There are very few minor typos (I found 3).Logically organized by technology topics. Gradually introduces topics and provides relevant advice on performance issues. Some code in the Kindle version is not properly formatted, going to the free source code repository in github will help in those cases.I found this book excellent towards building solid skills towards becoming a solid MongoDB developer.

Very well-written guide to MongoDB aggregations. Contains detailed examples to help illustrate concepts. Doesn't just give you an idea of how to implement something with aggregation but also provides new ideas of what's possible. I wish there were more comparisons to SQL to help draw parallels for readers new to MongoDB but familiar with relational

I joined MongoDB a year after the company released the aggregation framework. While it was pretty simple in those early days, significant R&D investment over subsequent years has evolved it into one of MongoDB's most powerful capabilities. It puts immensely powerful data processing tools in the hands of developers using their preferred languages and frameworks. This allows them to extract even more value from their app data without incurring the complexity or cost of having to move it into a dedicated analytics system. Practical MongoDB Aggregations shows them how.With real world examples, the book shows how developers can programmatically compose powerful multi-stage processing pipelines that aggregate, transform, and enrich live application data for real-time analytics and insights. Whether you are building reports, generating alerts against live sensor data, transforming and enriching data for further downstream processing or feeding machine learning models for training and inference, the aggregation framework is your go-to tool.Packed with real world examples built by Paul from a decade of working with MongoDB's largest and most demanding customers, Practical MongoDB Aggregations is perfect whether you are new to MongoDB and NoSQL, or a seasoned pro!

If you use MongoDB or plan to, this book is for you. Paul does a great job explaining aggregations, the history, and idiomatic development patterns. This book is for newbies as well as seasoned pipeline developers. It sits on my desk as a constant companion.
