Learn the new Document Store feature of MySQL 8 and build applications around a mix of the best
features from SQL and NoSQL database paradigms. Don't allow yourself to be forced into one
paradigm or the other but combine both approaches by using the Document Store. MySQL 8 was
designed from the beginning to bridge the gap between NoSQL and SQL. Oracle recognizes that

objects as loose collections of schema-less documents but those same developers also need the
ability to run structured queries on their data. With MySQL 8 you can do both! Introducing the

solution far easier than ever before. This book covers the vitally important MySQL Document
