Do you want to know the biggest single reason you should choose document databases over SQL Server, Oracle, or MySQL? Hint: It’s not performance or scalability.
Here is a short screencast which shows you the stark contrast in simplicity between an application using a relational database and one using a document database such as MongoDB, CouchDB, or RavenDB.
This is an excerpt from my upcoming online MongoDB course for DevelopMentor. You can take the first 1 1/2 hours for free here:
