MongoDB, a NoSQL database

ExpressJS, a web application framework

AngularJS, a JavaScript MVC framework for building web apps.

NodeJS, a JavaScript runtime that uses an amazing event blocking I/O model.

All the four components when used together form a power house that helps in the rapid development of mobile apps. So, what are the advantages of developing mobile apps using MEAN Stack?

At BrainMobi, we consider a long list of advantages of using NodeJS with all the above four mentioned technologies together for well-rounded development practices. Included in the list at the top is flexibility that Node JS offers while switching between the client and the server. As JavaScript is the denominator of all above-mentioned technologies, it allows the switch between client and server very easy. Using MEAN Stack, it becomes easy to deploy apps directly on servers instead of first deploying it across stand- alone servers. It also proves to be a great sigh of relief for the Developers as MEAN Stack is based on one Universal Language instead of multiple itineraries of languages.

With MongoDB, it becomes quite easy to host apps on the cloud as MongoDB was developed for clouds. Once you are done with the development process upload your app on Cloud and make further changes without much hassle. Just imagine how convenient it becomes to test the app and make further modifications by just adding a new field to the form.

Are you familiar with Isomorphic Coding?

Isomorphic coding allows running a code written within one framework on other frameworks without much changes to the original code. Using MEAN Stack you can use this functionality in and out across whole source code without any changes in the original code which make MEAN a reliable and cutting edge technology.

Along with above features, MEAN Stack is well proven and had already been used across a long list of applications. It’s for sure that you would not have to face any challenges as far as any problem which may pop up down the road. Still unsure? Just try and conduct a Google search to find a solution for your problem and we bet you will receive a long list of solutions. Just to bring the attention, giants like eBay and PayPal have already been using the technology to garner benefits offered by the technology.

We can add so much to this list including if we go over how cost-effective hosting can be with Node.JS or the fact that JSON is everywhere. But what else would you add to this list?

AngularJS is a part of the MEAN stack which is a software stack containing MongoDB, Express.js, AngularJS, and Node.js. It is a very useful framework and has the potential of being one of your favorite frameworks. A lot of developers find AngularJS to be their favorite framework, including a few members of our team of developers. Here are a few reasons why AngularJS development skills are a must-have for developers:

It is a secure framework

Whenever we think about switching from one framework to the other, the first thing that comes to our mind is the question, “is it safe?” AngularJS is. And since an increasing number of companies now focus more on data security and easy access to channels, distributors, and their sales team, more and more companies now use AngularJS for development. The skills gained might come in handy whenever you switch to any other HTML based language.

Easy to integrate third party features

With AngularJS, integrating third party features is a cakewalk since Angular integration is pre-built into many of the frameworks such as Kendo UI, Ionic, Wijmo, Famo-us and many others. And since it is a secure framework, it is safe to use most of the third party features. As a developer, these tools, as well as your skills in AngularJS development, could help.

Two-way data binding

AngularJS implements data binding in a way that allows you to treat the model as the only source of truth in the application, while the view is treated as a projection of the model at all times. Effectively, there is an automatic synchronization of data in between the model and view components.

Code less

One of the most lucrative features of AngularJS is that with the help dependency injection(AngularJS has a pervasive dependency injection) and two-way data binding, AngularJS enables the developers to reuse the code thus eliminating the need to write long codes when the code is repeated.

Testing is easy

With tools such as Karma and Jasmine, testing is really easy in AngularJS. And it is this ease of testing that enables the developers to develop safer products with AngularJS. This certainly makes AngularJS development skills a must-have skill for all developers.

BrainMobi is a leading AngularJS development company. Our team of top AngularJS developers truly understand why AngularJS development skills are a must-have for developers and hence work tirelessly on improving their AngularJS development skills.

While there are a lot of solutions in the market for handling data, some of our favorite popular Big Data products are:

Hadoop: This is a name which largely represents Big Data to most who know even a little bit about Big Data. Hadoop is an open-source framework used for storing very large data sets in a distributed fashion on large clusters of computers. This enables scaling of data without worrying about hardware limitations. It provides colossal amounts of storage for all kinds of data, with extensive processing power and an ability to handle almost limitless amounts of concurrent jobs or tasks. It is difficult for beginners to work on Hadoop since to harness its true power, we need an excellent command on JAVA. It might seem daunting in the beginning but it is worth the efforts since a lot of companies and technologies thrive on it, either by directly using it or by integrating with it.

Cloudera: Cloudera has effectively become the face of Hadoop, with additional services supporting the architecture. The services Cloudera provides helps businesses in building enterprise data hubs, allowing people in the organizations to access the data you have stored in a better way.The best part of Cloudera is that it is completely open source, hence every organisation can afford if it has the right resources, i.e., processing power and skilled programmers who can work on it. It also gives you a certain amount of data security, which is very critical when you store sensitive data.

MongoDB: MongoDB is a modern approach to databases. We could think of MongoDB as an alternative to existing relational database systems. It is good for managing the kind of data that changes fairly frequently or the kind of data that is semi-structured or unstructured. Like in the case of Hadoop, beginners would find it difficult to use MongoDB since they would need to know how to make queries using programming languages.

But all of these options need data, and data comes from various sources such as mobile apps, websites, and wearable apps. To give you the much required data which would help you find trends in the data which would be needed for more productivity. We, at BrainMobi, develop apps and websites for your data to roll in. We use Google and Amazon Web Services for your servers to give you an easier and more secure access to your data which can be directly integrated with your Big Data product. Our ace team of top mobile app developers know exactly how to make a mobile app which would have the maximum audience retention so that you have maximum data to work upon. Our innovative team of the best website developers develop websites which are lightweight and attract more audience. Our team of top wearable app developers ensure immersive experiences to the users so that they keep coming back, thus generating the required data.

Acronym for MEAN –

• MongoDB database
• Express JS that is used as HTTP server framework
• AngularJS as front end JS framework
• Node JS to provide concurrent JavaScript environment for building scalable and fast web applications.

MEAN Stack Concept

Let’s check out what are the advantages of using MEAN Stack, and how top MEAN Stack developers use it as one of the strongest weapons for developing world class mobile apps and websites:

1. Use of JavaScript throughout the project makes the code isomorphic.

Javascript is one of the most popular languages across the world with numerous benefits. By going MEAN you can enjoy having that same JavaScript on the client. For instance, If you write a code for Node & decide it’s better placed in AngularJS, you can move it over with ease. This is the reason why MEAN based apps are flexible to code. Plus, you need not have expertise over other different languages like PHP, or a frontend and backend specialist, One JavaScript specialist can successfully handle the entire project using MEAN stack formula. Top MEAN Stack development companies consider the stack of technologies in MEAN an elixir to uplift excellence in app and web development projects.

2. JSON everywhere

JSON is used both in AngularJS and Node JS. Even MongoDB is the component based relational database that allows you to store documents in JSON format. MongoDB can successfully communicate with Javascript notations. But MongoDB is used only for Small to mid-sized companies whereas MySQL is used for Large projects. Top app developers chose MEAN Stack frequently at numerous stages of app and web development. At BrainMobi, we frequently render MEAN Stack development services across app and web development projects.

3. Open Source

All the technologies used in MEAN Stack are open source and are available for free to use. It reduces development cost and helps culminate the development approach using useful libraries and public repositories available online. Top app web developers post their queries on such open portal to get solutions from other connected experts across the globe. At BrainMobi, we consult our repositories and libraries built and maintained under supervision of well-versed workforce. Our top MEAN Stack developers greatly contribute to that knowledge resource.

4. Cloud Compatible

In case your project requires to implement cloud functionalities within the app, MongoDB is a good option to choose. This makes M in MEAN a profitable share to have. Given the ease with which apps can be developed, tested and maintained on cloud leaves no reason to use MongoDB in your project. This reduces the cost of disk space.

5. AngularJS as frontend

AngularJS is an open source client-side Javascript framework that has been creeping into many projects for a bit while now. Top app developers chose the language to power front end of projects. At BrainMobi, we mainly use AngularJS for front end integration as it helps in resolving many issues when making reusable, maintainable or testable client-side applications powered by Javascript. AngularJS framework is a set of powerful directives that evolves into domain-specific language, keeping things highly testable and reusable. This technology highly influences the significance of MEAN stack development.

As every technology has its own advantages and disadvantages, you do not have to be a slave of the acronym. Any technology mentioned in the stack can be easily used in combination with other as per the requirement. But consider the MEAN stack, If you want a stack that’s rapidly improving, easy to collaborate around and easy to learn.

Let us sprinkle the goodness of MEAN technologies to bring more power to your project.
