Editor's Notes
- #4: Today we will have three speakers. First up is me, Adam Kroll, partner program manager. I’ll be giving an update about the partner program, and some new benefits we have coming your way.Kelly Stirman will give a product update, to get you up to speed on new features in our upcoming release.Melia Jones will speak about our new event MongoDB World, and how you can get involved.
- #5: -We wanted a program that would be open, leverage existing resources of our company, and scale beyond the capacity of the just four members of the business development team at the time.-The program we launched in March of 2013 was basic, and provided a foundation for our work with partners. -Just as with our developer community, over the next year we would discover many software, services, cloud, and hardware companies already working with MongoDB.
- #7: This slide is for those who may have joined the program early on last spring. The program levels were updated somewhat before we rebranded from 10gen to MongoDB. The entry level is now called MongoDB Ready Partner, then you have your advanced and strategic partner levels.
- #8: What does this tell us?-People love developing with MongoDB.-There’s a ton of room for growth
- #9: These are just a few of the many companies we are working with to make joint customers successful.
- #11: MongoDB University offers several online courses. You can access two of them on-demand for self-paced learning, MongoDB for Developers, with Java and Python options, and MongoDB for DBAs.For more intensive learning, MongoDB public classes over in-depth curriculum and small class size for more personal attention. The instructors are all MongoDB trainers or engineers. Our partners receive a discount on training seats, and you can find more information about that on the partner portal.
- #12: Visit mongodb.com/partners/portal to access or request access to the MongoDB Partner Portal. It is a Google Site, and therefore uses Google Accounts for authentication. Please make sure to submit with an email address associated with a Google Account, and we will process your request within the week or sooner.
- #13: The MongoDB Partner Portal contains the majority of resources for partners, as well as several key contact forms. I encourage you to browse the portal to explore all it has to offer. It includes sales enablement presentations, information about how to participate in marketing programs at MongoDB.
- #17: Start by asking which release people are on: 2.0 or earlier; 2.2, 2.4. Many are not yet on 2.4, so good to remind them what is important about the release.We don’t want to spend too much time on future releases because it places the focus on what is *not* in the product today.It is important to thank the audience – they are the community, they are MongoDB. The product is a reflection of their priorities, so be vocal and vote for what matters to you.
- #22: For many users performance is one of the top reasons for choosing MongoDB, and with every release we work to make performance better.
- #23: You can point out that the security work in 2.4 was just the beginning. Security is a large functional area that will take several releases to address. 2.6 goes a long way . . .
- #34: Optimizer improvements, powered by new indexing API – we have invested a lot of engineering resources in our core database optimizer and indexing APIs. This sets us up for faster innovation in these areas going forward. You see some key advances in this release – such as index intersections and a few new update operators – but expect to see a lot more in the future.New update operators like $mul and xor for $bit make it easier for you to develop your applications – less code for you to write, and fewer round trips to the database.Sharded Clusters - There are users with some very large clusters out there these days. With many shards and mongos instances, 2.6 will significantly reduce the network resource usage. Also, there are now parallel bulk writes so that loading and updating large volumes of data is much more efficient.The Aggregation Framework has proven to be very popular in the community. In 2.6 you can take the results of your pipelined transformations and aggregations and write them back into a collection. If the collection already exists the system will replace it atomically. You can also work with the results using a cursor instead of being limited to 16MB of results, and there are new set operators to handle more interesting analytics much more efficiently.Many of you will be happy to hear that background indexing on secondaries will be in 2.6. This has been a long-requested enhancement, and it makes it much easier to perform planned maintenance on your system with no downtime.In the Enterprise security matters a lot. In 2.6 there are many enhancements in this area, including support for LDAP and x.509 authentication, auditing of admin tasks (data access auditing will come in a future release), very granular user-defined roles and collection-level authorization. There is still more to do in the area of security in the future, but this is a major step forward and it makes it much easier to incorporate MongoDB into the standard Enterprise stack.Finally with Text Search, based on a great deal of testing and experience in the community, the feature is no longer in Beta – you can consider it ready for production. Part of getting it ready was to integrate text search more closely with other queries, including the Aggregation Framework. You’ll also now have support for multi-language documents.One item that isn’t on this list – MMS On-prem now has support for backups. We are actively looking for beta testers to work with us to test MMS in their infrastructure. If you’re interested, please see me after the talk!
- #35: Schema validation – there’s no reason why schemas shouldn’t be a part of MongoDB. They can be really helpful in some cases, like ensuring data integrity. BSON provides structure, and if you think of all the things possible with the MongoDB Query Language there are lots of interesting possibilities for how we could build schema validation.Concurrency – with each release we make improvements to concurrency in MongoDB. In 2.0 we introduced lock yielding, which allows the database to proceed with other in-memory operations if a page fault is detected when accessing data. In 2.2 we introduced database-level locks and expanded lock yielding. These improvements addressed concurrency limitations for the majority of users, but for some users there are still bottlenecks in concurrency.Storage efficiency – there are a number of areas in which the efficiency of storage could be improved, including compression. This could have the benefit of reducing the on-disk size as well as increasing the amount of data that fits in RAM.Multi-master collections - in some applications availability is more important than consistency. Today in MongoDB you have a choice when it comes to reads, but for writes your only choice is writing to a single primary. With multi-master collections it would be possible to write to a collection at multiple masters which would guarantee the availability of writes.
- #36: MMS – ask people who is using the service today. They’re in good company with over 25,000 registered users. MMS is in beta for backups, looking for testers, please let us know if you’re interested. More great management tools coming soon.Product Launch Services – black Friday, superbowl Sunday, new app launching in marketplace, etc. these are the types of events. Available to subscribers only.
- #37: Advanced Ops Training – delivered in their offices, uses EC2 as the environmentMongoDB Certification - $150 to test, does not require taking our training
- #39: Reach a broader audience – developers, IT professionals, executive decision makersExpand content presented – technical deep dives enterprise/business, ecosystem from our partnersDemonstrate leadership – maintain our position as innovators Be GlobalEmbrace our partners MongoDB Days are single day conferences targeted to the local market and community, with local speakers. MongoDB World will be a worldwide, multi day event that will reach a broader audience with more diverse content, and a wide variety of partners participating.
- #40: The marketing team will work with a panel of mongodb masters to select content presented by our Community Members & Customers. There are detailed guidelines on how to submit on our website. We recommend having a customer present on your behalf and we will work with you – engineers & speaking coach
- #41: Professional booth spaceMultiple branding opportunities – higher sponsorship tiers will receive greater visibilityHighly trafficked expo hallHigh profile promotions leading up to the conference – targeted 20,000 impressions minimum on our websiteBrand association
