Getting Started with Jakarta NoSQL and MongoDB

The Jakarta NoSQL specification defines a set of APIs to provide a standard implementation for most NoSQL databases. Considered "one API for many NoSQL databases," Jakarta NoSQL supports the four types of NoSQL databases: column family, document, graph and key-value.

This presentation will provide an introduction to the Jakarta NoSQL specification, Eclipse JNoSQL, the compatible implementation to the specification, a brief overview of all four NoSQL database types followed by a demonstration of a MongoDB application built with Jakarta NoSQL.
