- [Daniel] Hi, my name is Daniel Khan and I've been working as a developer and architect in tech for over 20 years. Around 10 years ago, I heard about Node.js, fell in love with it, and use it mostly since then. In every developer's life, there comes this moment where they think, "Well, now I really needed database." My moment was many years ago when I wanted to store data, users entered into a form. As you can see from this historic screenshot, I had no clue at all on how to get started. Back then, I only knew Microsoft Access, and that's clearly nothing you want to use on the web. Today, most websites are using a database in one or the other way and there are many choices when it comes to selecting the right database system. My goal for this course is to help you to add databases to your Node.js tool belt. I keep the theory parts to a minimum and just explain what you really need to know to get the job done. So, even if you are familiar with databases already and just want to know how to use them with Node.js, I promise you that you won't get bored along the way. By the end of this course, you will be able to use databases with Node.js and they will also know which one to choose when. Are you ready? Okay, let's dive right in.
