Hello everyone!
I am very much a newbie to FDB and after dealing with mysterious document validation errors today, I’m looking to learn something new. I’ve been using Mongo for years and never learned anything else out of comfort, familiarity, and the fear of learning something different.
Anyhoo, does anyone have pointers on migrating a web app with Mongo as it’s database to FDB? I haven’t found any articles or blog posts detailing such a thing.
Hello,

It depends, the staightforward answer would be to recommend to look at the document layer at https://forums.foundationdb.org/c/document-layer
AFAIU that is not the way you can get the most of FDB. My preferred way is to “embed” it in my software (via a library) using one of the official bindings.
If you have large code base, using the document layer is the most straightforward.
