M320: Data Modeling (MongoDB)

Offered by MongoDB University,
M320: Data Modeling (MongoDB)

Learn everything you need to know about data modeling for MongoDB. After completing this course, you should have a good understanding of how to create data models for MongoDB. We will go over a few techniques, from a very simple process for simple schemas to more complex ones for large teams and large projects.

You'll build a solid understanding of frequent patterns to apply when modeling and will be able to apply those in your designs.

Prerequisites:
M001 and software architecture experience with data modeling or MongoDB experience in general.

Before the advent of quantum mechanics in the early 20th century, most scientists believed that it should be possible to predict the behavior of any object in the universe simply by understanding the behavior of its constituent parts. For instance, if one could write down the equations of motion for every atom in a system, it should be possible to solve those equations (with the aid of a sufficiently large computing device) and make accurate predictions about that system’s future.

As rates of change, derivatives give us information about the shape of a graph. In this course, we will apply the derivative to find linear approximations for single-variable and multi-variable functions. This gives us a straightforward way to estimate functions that may be complicated or difficult to evaluate. We will also use the derivative to locate the maximum and minimum values of a function. These optimization techniques are important for all fields, including the natural sciences and data analysis. The topics in this course lend themselves to many real-world applications, such as machine learning, minimizing costs or maximizing profits.
