"Thoroughly Modern Mongo: Modernising the MongoDB Codebase" by Bernard Gorman

Slides: https://github.com/cppdug/presentations/blob/master/files/20...

Abstract: Keeping up with recent improvements to the C++ standard is considered a priority at MongoDB; from its origins in C++03, the project has been successively migrated through C++11 and 14 in recent years, with an imminent move to C++ 17 on the horizon. For a codebase that is already nearing a million lines of code and with any number of areas under continuous active development, this commitment obviously presents a significant logistical challenge. This talk will discuss why and how we invest ongoing effort into incrementally modernising the codebase itself, as well as our build system and testing infrastructure, in service of ever greater developer productivity.
