A database is a collection of structured data, stored in a computer system. It can be used to store and manage data that can be accessed by multiple users. In the context of JavaScript, databases can be used to store and manage information related to web applications. This could include user information, session data, or application settings. By using a database, developers can create dynamic web applications that are able to respond to user input and provide data-driven results.

Using TypeScript with Key/Value Databases
Key-value databases are optimized for high availability and partition tolerance, making them ideal for storing non-relational data structures. They prioritize speed and high availability over consistency, making them suitable for simple data models or one-to-one mappings. However, they have limited query capabilities compared to relational databases. Some available options for key-value databases include DynamoDB, CloudFlare Worker KV, Redis, and FoundationDB. Using key-value databases in TypeScript requires addressing challenges such as serialization, deserialization, secondary indexes, relationships, and validation. The Talk includes a demonstration of an application that showcases the use of secondary indexes and the implementation of a key-value database in Deno or Redis.

The database can be one of the hardest parts of a web app to scale. Many projects end up using ad-hoc caching systems that are complex, error-prone, and expensive to build. What if you could drop in a ready-built caching system to enable better throughput and latency with no code changes to your application?
Join developers Aspen Smith and Nick Marino to see how you can change one line of config in your app and use ReadySet to scale up your query performance by orders of magnitude today.

How Remix and Prisma Make Frontend Devs Fullstack
Remix and Prisma enable front-end developers to become full-stack developers by working across different parts of the stack without diving into complexities. They provide a great framework for writing code and interacting with databases, making it easier to be a full-stack developer. Prisma's ORM allows mapping database models to JavaScript or JSON models. Developing a full stack app with Remix requires structuring components and loaders differently, but simplifies development by focusing on one place.

Native GraphQL, GraphQL as a Database Query Language
The Talk introduces NativeGraphQL, which translates a GraphQL query into one FQL query, offering advantages over traditional GraphQL resolvers. The VANA approach to NativeGraphQL avoids the n plus one problem and provides several benefits. FQL is a good fit for NativeGraphQL as it solves the tree traversal problem and offers the same advantages as the rest of the native FQL language. Native GraphQL also provides multi-region scalability, ACID, and transactionality out-of-the-box.

InfluxDB is an open source time series database that empowers developers to build IoT, analytics and monitoring software. It is purpose-built to handle the massive volumes and countless sources of time-stamped data produced sensors, applications and infrastructure.
This workshop showcases a fully functional sample application called IoT Center that is built on InfluxDB. This application demonstrates the capabilities of the InfluxDB platform to develop a JavaScript-enabled time-series-based application. It collects, stores and displays a set of values that include temperature, humidity, pressure, CO2 concentration, air quality, as well as provide GPS coordinates from a set of IoT devices. With this data stored in InfluxDB, the application can query this data for display as well as write data back into the database.
This hands-on workshop will show students how to install this open source code to learn how to query and write to InfluxDB using the InfluxDB JavaScript client, and gain familiarity with the Flux lang query language which is designed for querying, analyzing, and acting on time series data. And finally, collect and visualize performance data of the Node JS application.
