MongoDB

MongoDB is an open source, document-oriented, and cross-platform database. It is primarily written in C++. It is also the leading NoSQL database and tied with the SQL database in fifth position after PostgreSQL. It provides high performance, high availability, and easy scalability. MongoDB uses JSON-like documents with schema. MongoDB, developed by MongoDB Inc., is free to use. It is published under a combination of the GNU Affero General Public License and the Apache License.

Let's go through the MongoDB features:

Rich query support: We can query the database as we do with SQL databases. It has a large query set that supports insert, update, delete and select operations. MongoDB supports fields, range queries, and regular expressions. Queries also support the projection where they return a value for specific keys.
Indexing: MongoDB supports primary and secondary...

Covers the basics of 7 NoSQL databases and how they are used in the enterprises

Quick introduction to MongoDB, DynamoDB, Redis, Cassandra, Neo4j, InfluxDB, and HBase

Includes effective techniques for database querying and management

Description

This is the golden age of open source NoSQL databases. With enterprises having to work with large amounts of unstructured data and moving away from expensive monolithic architecture, the adoption of NoSQL databases is rapidly increasing. Being familiar with the popular NoSQL databases and knowing how to use them is a must for budding DBAs and developers. This book introduces you to the different types of NoSQL databases and gets you started with seven of the most popular NoSQL databases used by enterprises today. We start off with a brief overview of what NoSQL databases are, followed by an explanation of why and when to use them. The book then covers the seven most popular databases in each of these categories: MongoDB, Amazon DynamoDB, Redis, HBase, Cassandra, In?uxDB, and Neo4j. The book doesn't go into too much detail about each database but teaches you enough to get started with them. By the end of this book, you will have a thorough understanding of the different NoSQL databases and their functionalities, empowering you to select and use the right database according to your needs.

What you will learn

I have read several NoSQL books available for Amazon Kindle over the past week. This is far and away the most useful if you are researching which of the over 350 available NoSQL servers is right for you. Rather than speaking in generalities and only lightly touching specific products, the authors have decided to select seven popular and capable DB servers and go into great detail, giving you a real feel for how each one operates and where it excels and comes up short.One problem I have found with many NoSQL books is that the Kindle formatting is poor (with hundreds of times words are crammed together or extraneous spaces make reading a chore) or English is not the author's first language and he did not avail himself of a good editor. This book has multiple authors and the result is consistently polished. I did, however, find a few errors. This is to be expected from a brand new book (only two months old) and the errors were easily recognized. For example, in the MongoDB chapter, there are discrepancies between the discussion and actual query, where they don't agree on whether a person's age is being tested for 29 years or 30 years. In the DynamoDB chapter, valid characters are given for a string and I believe they included A-Z and z-z. Easy to catch and not a hindrance to understanding what they meant to say. Also, almost all the other NoSQL books I found were several years old. That's WAY too old for a subject as dynamic and quickly progressing as NoSQL.This book did an excellent job of detailing where specific DBs excel and fall short. After reading the various chapters, I was able to easily rule out a few of them (like the generally solid Cassandra) and hone in on what so far appears to be the best choice for the log data I intend to store: InfluxDB. I gained great respect for one I have heard a lot about, Redis, but learned that it is designed to keep all data in memory rather than on disk. This makes it an excellent choice for something like a web caching DB, but unusable for a database the size I will need. The book also confirmed that Amazon's DynamoDB would also be an acceptable choice for me, but would require more work on my part to make it do the job.For each of the seven DBs, the authors generally walk through installation and configuration, as well as database setup and queries. I thought this was best handled in the chapters on MongoDB and DynamoDB, as they went into more detail using examples of exactly how to write useful queries. So I new exactly what my queries would look like for each product. Where applicable, they included a lot of detail on data replication, fault tolerance, and discussed how these DBs work across multiple servers.A great book on what is a mysterious subject for many. I recommend starting with this book once you have done your initial research on NoSQL and understand the concepts. Once you are ready for solid DB suggestions, you can't beat this book.

Yes, this book is very helpful. From experts to novices everyone can have this book as a quick reference.

This book is only a decent overview of 7 NoSql DBs, certainly not worth 1700 odd bucks.

Mehrfach fällt mir Folgendes bei Büchern von PACKT auf:* Viele Giiederungsüberschriften, deren Größe bereits viel Papier füllt.* Schlecht redigierter Text, teilweise haben Textblöcke keinen Bezug zueinander.* Sehr teuer im Vergleich zum Inhalt.Leider fügt sich auch dieses Buch in diese Reihe. Die Abschnitte werfen mehr Fragen auf, als sie Probleme lösen. Selbst als Nachschlagewerk sind die Kapitel zu dürftig.
