Design, build, and deliver efficient Java applications using the most advanced NoSQL database This book is for Java developers and architects that want to learn how to develop Java applications using the most popular NoSQL solution and the use cases of it. The NoSQL movement is growing in relevance, attracting more and more developers. The MongoDB database is a well-recognized rising star in the NoSQL world. It is a document database, which allows data persistence and enables you to query data in a nested state without any schema constraint and complex joins between documents. This book provides all the knowledge you need to make MongoDB fit in your application schema, at the best of its capabilities. It starts from a basic introduction to the driver that can be used to perform some low-level interaction with the storage. Then it moves to use different patterns to abstract the persistence layer into your applications, starting from the flexible Google JSON library to the Hibernate OGM Framework and finally landing on the Spring data framework. By the end of this book, you will know everything you need to use MongoDB in your Java applications. A simple, tutorial-like approach is used to explain the concepts contained in the book in the simplest possible way. The chapters of this book are arranged so that complexity increases progressively as you gain more experience from the earlier chapters.

Very good for beginners. It covers other topics around MongoDB in a web environment. Nice introduction of NoSQL. Could have more information on good practices.
