3. What is No-SQL SQL = Structured NoSQL = Messy - No Tables , No Joins
- No Traditional Queries
- Less ACID-ity
+ Fault Tolerant
+ Distributed
+ Highly available - RQL
+ key value stores
+ Document store
+ Graph database

4. Introduction to MongoDB
Basics
C++
Language Drivers
Cloud Web development Platform
Documents
Collections
Based on documents
Flexible Schema
Documents with Variable Fields
Any field for Any Data type
Capped Collections
Data Format : BSON
Faster than JSON ?
* Flexible schema = document fields in same collection can hold different TYPE of data.

5. Data Modeling Considerations
Data growth & change over time
Queries
Normalization / de-normalization
Indexes
Data representation in BSON

6. MongoDB Document _id, which must hold a unique value.
name that holds another document. This sub-document contains the fields first and last, which both hold strings.
birth and death that both have date types.
contribs that holds an array of strings.
awards that holds an array of documents.

7. Why MongoDB Data vs Relations
Highly optimized for retrieval / appending operations
Statistical or real-time analysis of growing lists of elements such as Social Media sources
