Learn how to build powerful backends without application servers using MongoDB Stitch, straight from MongoDB CTO Eliot Horowitz. Stitch is a Backend as a Service that lets developers 1) perform CRUD operations directly against their database with a REST API; 2) declaratively specify field level security on their data; & 3) compose server-side logic & external services with hosted functions.

Four live-coding demonstrations of Stitch in action will get you up to speed. First, Eliot will demonstrate querying & inserting data into Stitch by adding comment capability to a static blog. Second, hell demonstrate the power of Stitch's declarative ACL rules in the context of a medical records application. Third, hell show off services integration using AWS S3 & Twilio. Finally, well put it all together with an IoT powered 2-factor door security system, demonstrating Stitch orchestrating a complex architecture of devices, logic, & services.
