MongoDB 4 Quick Start Guide

Preface

MongoDB can solve problems considered difficult if not impossible for aging Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) technologies. In order to properly use this technology, a major thought-paradigm shift needs to take place. This guide will address this issue by showing readers how to quickly and easily obtain results for even the most complex modeling tasks. Most computer professionals have been trained to use RDBMS, but are unsure of how to properly use MongoDB. One important thing that this book explores is how to properly model and use data in a NoSQL environment. Examples focus on PHP and JavaScript as both are widely used on internet web servers, and are well understood by the majority of IT professionals.
