Course description
In this course, we are going to introduce you to the concepts behind the NoSQL ecosystem, including what NoSQL is and isn’t, along with a brief overview of some of the most popular NoSQL implementations. Next we are going to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using a NoSQL database and the benefits of leveraging a schemaless database in your applications. Then we are going to set up the environment we will be using to develop an application. We will cover the various tools being utilized, including Mongo, Express.js, AngularJS, and Node.js among others.
Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.
