Tokutek Announces Online Learning Series for MongoDB Distro TokuMX

LEXINGTON, MA--(Marketwired - Mar 5, 2014) - Tokutek, delivering database performance at scale, today announced a Webinar series designed to help database developers and DevOps professionals get the most out of MongoDB and get up to speed with the TokuMX distribution. As the MongoDB ecosystem grows, development teams have more tools at their disposal and this series explores an array of options available to the community.

The upcoming Webinar, "Which MongoDB Distribution Should You Use? The AOL Benchmark," is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ET/10:00 am PT on March 5; the other two are available at the Tokutek site. Attend this webinar with John Schulz, the database architect who built the benchmarks for AOL, as he reveals how the testing was done and his findings. John will address:

• How AOL developed a test plan

• Requirements for running a successful bake-off

• The results of benchmarking MongoDB against TokuMX

Taken together, the TokuMX webinars cover the basics of TokuMX from transaction support to scaling up and out:
