As application requirements evolve, teams are rethinking the foundations of their data architecture. In this session, we’ll explore the shift from relational to document model thinking, including how schema design in MongoDB can reduce query complexity, improve performance, and support modern application development at scale. IBS Software, a global leader in aviation and travel technology, will share the modernization journey behind its iHospitality platform and what drove their move from a relational database approach to MongoDB. You’ll hear how they evaluated the need for greater scalability, flexibility, and performance, the lessons they learned along the way, and how they are continuing to evolve the platform to support future growth at enterprise scale. You’ll leave with practical lessons on modernization planning, schema design, and how to evaluate your own path from RDBMS to MongoDB for mission-critical applications.
