Mongo DB relations between objects

Question

I\'m trying to implement blog post storage using mongo db.

I\'ve got two domain entities:

\"Blog post\" and \"Author\"

Currently I\'ve added AuthorId

Answer 1

I think this post will be right for you http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Schema+Design

Use Cases

Customer / Order / Order Line-Item

Orders should be a collection. customers a collection. line-items should be an array of line-items embedded in the order object.

Blogging system.

Posts should be a collection. post author might be a separate collection, or simply a field within posts if only an email address. comments should be embedded objects within a post for performance.
