Evolving Your Data Access with MongoDB Stitch

You have valuable data in MongoDB and while it's important to use that data to empower your users and customers it can be tough to do so in a safe, secure way. In this session, you'll learn how to simply connect your users with the data they need using MongoDB Stitch. We'll cover how to quickly set-up complex access controls using Stitch's Read and Write Rules as well as how to expose that data through Stitch's SDKs, Functions, and Services.

How and When to Use Multi-Document Distributed Transactions

Application development just got a lot easier! MongoDB 4.0 supports multi-document, multi-collection, multi-statement ACID transactions. We’ll walk through characteristics, syntax, optimization strategies, and all the guarantees transactions provide to simplify and speed up your application development. However, with great power comes great responsibility; you’ll also learn transactions aren’t always the answer. Learn how to spot dangerous usage patterns and leverage the other features of MongoDB to meet your requirements before pushing to prod.

MongoDB: Building a New Transactional Model

MongoDB Transactions are a major new piece of functionality for users. Early releases of the MongoDB database focused on applications without rigorous transactional semantics, as is common in NoSQL databases. However, some MongoDB users desire advanced transactional features, including multi-document transactions, point-in-time reads, and the choice of snapshot or read-committed isolation. To better support sophisticated transactional workloads, the MongoDB storage team has created a new transactional model in the WiredTiger storage engine, allowing WiredTiger to respect MongoDB's understanding of transaction ordering and giving MongoDB control over all data visibility. This talk will provide an overview of the ACID properties of transactions and an historic review of transactional support in MongoDB. This talk will also explain the timestamp support in WiredTiger, which lays the foundation for the distributed systems components of MongoDB: replication and sharding. At the end of the session, audience members will have a better understanding of the MongoDB transactional architecture. This session is designed for those who want to learn more about the internals of the system.

Digital Ethics and Privacy in a GDPR World

Public concern for the safety of data is growing – not just in how criminals might use stolen data to commit fraud, but also in how personal data is used by the organisations we engage with.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is designed to confront these concerns, defining a range of requirements to govern how organisations collect, store, process, retain, and share the personal data of EU citizens – irrespective of whether that organisation has a physical presence within the EU.

In this session, we explore the specific data management requirements demanded by the GDPR, digital ethics and everyone's role in being conscientious stewards of customer data, and discuss how MongoDB can provide the core technology foundations to help organisations accelerate their path to compliance.
