April Meetup: MongoDB

[Brian Turnbull]

Join us at RMC Research (1000 Market Street, Portsmouth, NH) this
coming Monday, 19 April 2010 at 7pm for the April edition of NHRuby.
This month, Sam Beam of OnsetCorps (http://onsetcorps.net/) will
present:

Introducing Non-Relational Databases (NoSQL): MongoDB

An overview of the "NoSQL" movement, looking at the real-world
advantages and disadvantages v/s traditional RDBMSs. Then, take a
closer look at MongoDB, performing basic setup, inserts and queries
from the command line. Then group-collaborate on building a Sinatra-
based web application using MongoDB as the datastore, getting a feel
for how the flexibility of a Non-R DBMS can shorten the development
cycle.
