It gives you some great convenience features and offers an opinionated approach to application development that can alleviate a lot of questions about how to accomplish common tasks. Ado Kukic from MongoDB's Developer Advocacy team joins Michael today to share his experience around Next.JS and to help us understand how it works, and how it fits into the application development stack that includes MongoDB.  Be sure to check out the tutorial Ado wrote on integrating MongoDB with Next.JS. https://www.mongodb.com/developer/how-to/nextjs-with-mongodb/

Here we are in November of 2021. The pandemic continues to impact the way we’re all working, doing business and connecting with other people. One powerful way that technologists from all industries have connected is through attendance at conferences. I’m no different… I find attending a good tech conference to be a valuable part of my continuing education. From large scale conferences like the Consumer Electronics Show, and AWS Re:invent, to language-aligned conferences like Gophercon, and PyCon. I go because it’s an opportunity to meet professionals and gain valuable perspective… and learn about the latest updates from vendors and technology providers.  On today's episode, we’re focusing on Tech Events and Conferences and to help guide a discussion about this and about the changing landscape of tech events throughout the pandemic, I’ve invited two of my highly esteemed colleagues from MongoDB’s amazing Events Management team… Nancy Monaghan and Dorothy McClelland.  If you’re a technologist interested in the new and exciting ways, we at MongoDB are approaching hybrid conferences or if you’re considering changes to the way you run and host events, this episode is for you.

Serverless computing, pioneered by platforms such as AWS Lambda, is a relatively new computing paradigm that developers are increasingly using as a tool for building applications in the cloud. Generally speaking, a solution is serverless if it can automatically and dynamically match compute and storage resources to workload demands. On today's show, Chris Shum, Sr. Product Manager for MongoDB Serverless (available in preview) joins Michael to talk about what Serverless means in the MongoDB context, how it was created and why you should be interested.
