PHP UK Conference 2016 - Morgan Tocker - MySQL 5 7 + JSON

With the newly added JSON support in MySQL, you can combine the flexibility of NoSQL with the strength of a relational database. In this session, Morgan will explain the new JSON datatype, and the new set of functions for handling JSON documents, available storage and indexing options.
