Below are the slides and the audio from the presentation.<\/p>\n<p>The talk covers MongoDB from the perspective of a newcomer to the technology. I relate the concepts in MongoDB to their corresponding SQL idioms&#8211;pointing out their differences and likenesses. The talk covers much of the functionality and capabilities of MongoDB, from the simple to the complex (queries, indexes, sharding, replication, installation, etc.). A lot of questions that are asked push deeper into the internals, many of which I answer, but several I defer with a simple &#8220;I don&#8217;t know&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The talk went much longer than I expected&#8211;over 2 hours. I was told it was the longest meeting they ever had. I was pleased at how engaged everyone was. There were so many questions, and many people seemed genuinely interested. I thoroughly enjoyed giving the talk.
