April 2017 - Azure DocumentDb -- the nano-ORM

Presentation:

At its root, software is the movement and manipulation of data. It is not always obvious how to store that data. This can be a daunting decision. Understanding the data is vital. SQL Server is usually the correct tool for the job, but that is not always true.

Ask yourself: is the data relational? If the data is not relational, a NoSQL option is a better choice. Let me be your guide as we descend into the realm of Azure DocumentDb (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/documentdb). In this talk, we'll explore its ease-of-use.
