Convert SQL table to mongoDB document

Question

What\'s the best way to convert a SQL database, let\'s say 1 table, to a mongoDB document?

I guess I could use a C# driver and implement a loop, which selects each r

Answer 1

Both the Norm & samus c# mongo drivers support strongly typed classes to be passed as documents. Means its cool as Nhiberbate and LINQ to SQL.

SO my idea is, you can use a LINQ to SQL to create a entity in c# (classes representing tables) to retrieve the data from sql server and you can use the same strongly typed class for insertion in mongo db.

Make sure that your classes should have a mongo identifier attribute (in NoRM) in any one of the field. This is to generate a unique id for a document.
