M121: The MongoDB Aggregation Framework (MongoDB)

Offered by MongoDB University,
M121: The MongoDB Aggregation Framework (MongoDB)

Learn how to use MongoDB's Aggregation Framework. This course will provide you with the knowledge to use MongoDB Aggregation Framework with confidence on your application development practices. You’ll build an understanding about how to use MongoDB Aggregation Framework pipeline, document transformation and data analysis. We will look into the internals of the Aggregation Framework alongside with optimization and pipeline building practices.

Prerequisites:
We highly recommend taking M001 or M220P or 3-6 months experience using MongoDB in application development.

Business

Even decades into the Information Age, accounting practices yet fail to recognize the financial value of information. Moreover, traditional asset management practices fail to recognize information as an asset to be managed with earnest discipline. This has led to a business culture of complacence, and the inability for most organizations to fully leverage available information assets. This second course in the two-part Infonomics series explores how and why to adapt well-honed asset management principles and practices to information, and how to apply accepted and new valuation models to gauge information’s potential and realized economic benefits.
