The MongoDB Podcast

Ep. 146 Live from .Local London with Ger Hartnett & Peter Fitch

At .local London back in November 2022, some key MongoDB personnel joined as guests on the podcast. This is the 2nd episode and here we've not one, but two guests - Ger Hartnett and Peter Fitch.


With Ger, he talks about how customers scale and also goes briefly into the engineering behind building MongoDB before diving into patterns for tuning MongoDB performance and scalability, in which, due to time constraints, we pick out just 2 to concentrate on - Indexing & Hunting Bottlenecks!


With Peter, it's all about his talk on how to get more out of Aggregations. Peter delves deeper into the possibilities of MongoDB’s Aggregation Framework using real-world examples and illustrates powerful operators that cut down on custom code and reduce time to data insights, and thus maximize developer productivity.
