Busy Java Developer's Guide to MongoDB

MongoDB is designed for problems without heavy transactional requirements that aren't easily solved by traditional RDBMSs, including problems which require the database to span many servers.

Like other document-oriented database systems such as CouchDB, MongoDB is not a relational database management system. The database manages collections of JSON-like documents which are stored in a binary format referred to as BSON.

Attendees will see MongoDB code, hear how it manages transactional integrity (using "eventual consistency"), and how to interact with the server outside of code by using MongoDB client tools.
