MySQL Document Store: A Deep Dive into Writing Scalable Applications

The MySQL document store opens up a whole new set of options for application developers to use MySQL. Using the JavaScript Object Notation functionality added to MySQL 5.7, the document store allows users to build applications that work with schemaless documents and relational tables in a unified way. The Dev API provides a common application interface across a large set of programming languages, making it easy to develop applications that can scale without having to think about writing SQL by hand. This presentation dives into the Dev API, its core concepts and how it makes writing applications that work with both JavaScript Object Notation documents and relational tables straightforward.
