Get started with Oracle Autonomous JSON Database for free

• The API translates the MongoDB wire protocol into SQL statements that are executed by Autonomous JSON Database. This means you can continue to use the drivers, frameworks, and tools you're familiar with to develop your JSON document-store applications.
• The API lets you leverage the converged database capabilities of Autonomous JSON Database to manage multiple data types, including JSON data, within a single database. For example, these converged database capabilities let you use SQL to query or update JSON data.
• There’s no need to install or configure the API—just retrieve the connection string for your Autonomous Database instance from Database Actions within OCI.

• Read the technical blog on the API
• Read the Oracle Database API for MongoDB documentation
• Experience LiveLabs workshop: Database API for MongoDB—the basics

Develop new MongoDB applications using favorite development tools, drivers, and frameworks—such as MongoDB Compass, Oracle Database Actions, Go, and Java.

• Use the MongoDB command-line tools, such as mongoexport and mongoimport, or Compass to import data into Autonomous JSON Database. Or use Oracle GoldenGate for an online, zero-downtime migration.
• Moving your applications from MongoDB to Oracle can be as simple as changing the connect string to point to Autonomous Database. The applications need little or no recoding.

• Read the technical blog on migrating from MongoDB to Autonomous JSON Database
• Read more on options for application data migration from MongoDB to Oracle Database

• SODA document collections are backed by ordinary database tables and views, and you can take advantage of database features for use with the content of SODA documents. SODA CRUD and query operations are automatically mapped to SQL operations on the underlying database tables or views, and these operations are optimized.
• There are separate SODA implementations for use with different languages and with the REST architectural style. SODA for REST can itself be accessed from almost any programming language. It maps SODA operations to URL patterns.
