MongoDB

MongoDB is a high-performance, open source, schema-free document-oriented database. MongoDB is written in C++ and offers the following features:

  • Collection oriented storage – easy storage of object-style data
  • Dynamic queries
  • Full index support, including on inner objects
  • Query profiling
  • Replication and fail-over support
  • Efficient storage of binary data including large objects (e.g. videos)
  • Auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability (currently in early alpha)

A key goal of MongoDB is to bridge the gap between key/value stores (which are fast and highly scalable) and traditional RDBMS systems (which are deep in functionality).
