Sugcon India 2019: xDB in Sitecore XP 8.2, 9 Without MongoDB and 9 with MongoDB

-
Thanks to Sugcon India and all its sponsors, around a month ago, I was in ITC Gardenia, Bengaluru, India to give a presentation about the relation between Sitecore and MongoDB from Sitecore XP 8.2 to XP 9.

I just realized that my session was recorded and is now publicly available as few days ago a friend of mine told me about that.

Here is the video of my presentation.


You might notice that not all the agenda in the slide is explained in the video, it is because the video is cut. If you would like to know more then please find the full slide of that presentation here.

Added Contact Is Not Shown in List Manager in a Scaled Sitecore XP 9

-
There was a time when I needed to help someone from finding what’s wrong with List Manager in a scaled SXP 9 (the exact version was Sitecore Experience Platform 9.0 rev. 180604 (9.0 Update-2) ). New contacts added into List Manager does not appear even though the blue color message box around the top area says: “ The contact has been added to the list, and will be available after indexing. ” Looking at the Sitecore logs, there are errors such as: 4244 17:14:27 ERROR [ListManagement]: Failed to get count of contacts for 86c048c4-761d-47c8-814f-30344a5dcac8 contact list. The error has been occurred: The HTTP response was not successful: InternalServerError Exception: Sitecore.XConnect.XdbSearchUnavailableException Message: The HTTP response was not successful: InternalServerError Source: Sitecore.Xdb.Common.Web    at Sitecore.Xdb.Common.Web.Synchronous.SynchronousExtensions.SuspendContextLock[TResult](Func`1 taskFactory)    at Sitecore.XConnect.Client.XConnectSync

I was doing upgrade from Sitecore 9 Initial Release to Sitecore 9 Update 1. I felt somehow confident that I have followed all the steps of upgrade guide correctly, but when I reached to the step in resuming service (page 47 in the document: “Start the Sitecore XConnect Search Indexer Windows service” ), I faced the following error: “Windows could not start the Sitecore Xconnect Search Indexer - {xConnect Instance}-IndexWorker service on Local Computer. Error 1064: An exception occurred in the service when handling the control request.” Based on MSDN , this error means: “ While handling a control request, the service attempted to access an illegal address. ” I then tried to run this application manually from the folder containing it ( C:\inetpub\wwwroot\<xConnectInstance>\App_data\jobs\continuous\IndexWorker ). It is clear that this error refers to the connection string which I obtained by copying and pasting directly (my mistake during installation
