I had the opportunity to speak recently\u00a0at the monthly Willamette Valley Software Engineers (WVSE) Meetup (@WVSEmeetup<\/a>) about NoSQL. I would like to thank the organizers of the event, Angelo Seminary (@angeloseminary<\/b><\/a>\u00a0of i.t.motives<\/a>) and Brenton Paulson (@brentonpaulsen<\/b><\/a>) for a great event. Mr. Paulson’s company, MAPS Credit Union<\/a> offers a great venue.\u00a0<\/span>This was my second time attending an event at WVSE,\u00a0the\u00a0first as a speaker. Both visits have been great experiences,\u00a0and very well coordinated.<\/p>\n

Discussion Topic<\/h3>\n

I did a high-level overview of NoSQL and what some of the different models of databases look like in the NoSQL world. We then took a look at how MongoDB<\/a> fits into the NoSQL space. I have a blog post about Why NoSQL<\/em> to, take a look here<\/a>. I also shared how to model data in documents<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition to the overview, I provided a brief example of CRUD operations in MongoDB. While the coverage of CRUD wasn’t too in depth, it was a good introduction. I have posts on CRUD with MongoDB using Python<\/a> and Java<\/a> for additional reading.<\/p>\n

As NoSQL seemed to be a relatively new topic to most of the dozen or so people in attendance, there were some great questions asked. Hopefully, I was able to\u00a0satisfactorily answer everyone’s questions. It was great to have Chase Swanson in attendance too as he was able to add his experience with MongoDB to the discussion.<\/p>\n

About WVSE<\/h3>\n

If you are a software engineer or developer in\u00a0the greater Willamette Valley area, I would encourage you to check WVSE out. They meet regularly to share ideas, learn from one another to network and meet others, and to have a good time! Regardless of your preferred technology or favorite languages or tools, they would like you to join them. Their\u00a0format is to meet once a month with some casual networking, a presentation with Q and A, and maybe some after hours at a fun place to cap the evening.\u00a0You can check out their upcoming meetings and topics on their Meetup page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
