Data Modeling for NoSQL Databases

Learn essential NoSQL data modeling techniques in this 59-minute technical talk delivered by ScyllaDB's Head of Training, Guy Shtub. Master the transition from SQL to NoSQL databases while exploring performant data modeling strategies specifically designed for key-value and key-key-value systems like Amazon DynamoDB, Google BigTable, Apache Cassandra, and ScyllaDB. Discover how to evaluate and implement optimal data modeling patterns based on specific usage requirements, examine practical applications through sample implementations, and avoid common pitfalls that have challenged even top engineering teams in production environments. Drawing from his experience as a startup co-founder and software engineer, Shtub provides actionable insights for both organizations migrating to NoSQL and teams seeking to optimize their existing NoSQL implementations.
