MongoDB – Application Development (MONGO1)

Databases, NoSQL and Big Data

This two-day course teaches practical skills for working with MongoDB, one of the most popular NoSQL databases. You will learn core concepts like data modeling, document structure, deployment choices and how to use tools and indexes to query and manage real datasets.

Through hands-on labs you will practice inserting, updating and querying documents, work with nested documents and arrays, learn about indexes to optimize queries, build aggregations using pipeline operators, handle transactions, and use MongoDB Compass for visual management and testing.

THIS TRAINING COURSE WILL HELP YOU:

  • Build solid MongoDB basics and NoSQL vs SQL understanding
  • Perform insert, update, delete and query operations
  • Manage nested documents and arrays effectively
  • Use indexes and optimize query performance
  • Create aggregations, use pipelines and handle transactions

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

  • Developers starting with MongoDB who need practical foundations
  • Data architects learning NoSQL approaches and data modeling
  • IT professionals managing MongoDB in on-prem or cloud environments
  • Analysts performing advanced queries and aggregations
