In Ayende Rahien's fast paced and hands on 3 day RavenDB workshop, you will learn how to use this quickly evolving Document Database efficiently in your applications to save time and effort on communicating with database storage.

During the first day of this workshop we will get to know RavenDB and its core concepts, get comfortable with its API, learn how to build and customize indexes, and how to correctly model data for use in a document database.

After getting familiar with all the basics in the first day, during the second day we will build on that knowledge to properly grok Map⁄Reduce, Multi–maps and other advanced usages of indexes, learn how to extend RavenDB and the various options of scaling out.

On the third day, we will get down & dirty in the guts of RavenDB, understand how and why it works the way it does, learn how to extend and modify how it works and what are the best ways to make the most optimal usage out of it. We will also cover supporting RavenDB in production and what option there are for monitoring what it is doing there.

Upon completion of this RavenDB course, you will be able to build database–backed applications faster and more efficiently.
