About the Presentation
Former DoubleClick Founder and CTO Dwight Merriman wrote the first lines of MongoDB code in 2007. He drew upon his experiences building large scale, high availability, robust systems to create a new kind of database. This session will introduce some of the background to how and why MongoDB came about to address the need for a more scalable database, and provide some key use cases and rationale for a new product category in the database marketplace.
