MongoDB by a front-end guy

Return on Investment

  • It requires somewhat less time to configure as a dev DB, so we saved quite a lot time added up.
  • MongoDB enabled us to focus on handling non-relational data which should have been transformed first or stored in a file level. This saved us months in some projects.

Return on Investment

  • MongoDB reduced development time spent on risky database migration for minor iterations.
  • MongoDB has reduced the amount of time we need to spend on database maintenance.
  • If it has cost us in terms of ROI, it would be in some of the complexity that's been involved in joining different pieces of data across collections, but that's been somewhat mitigated with GraphQL.

Return on Investment

  • On a positive note it has allowed us to rapidly change schemas and add different profiles without needing to go through an extensive data modeling exercise.
  • On a negative front it is more difficult to insert and retrieve data from MongoDB for the purposes of external partner integration.

  • Overall efficiency has increased of our team hence ROI also increased.
  • We can gather the data from multiple sources simultaneously that is positive for ROI.
  • We need to purchase the other tools for statistical analysis which are costly. Hence in this case our ROI gets impacted.

Return on Investment

  • MongoDB has helped us to save costs by avoiding installing and maintaining the software in-house. We use their Atlas service and thus have freed the need for DBAs.
  • Migrations are difficult to perform in a reliable manner. On the flip side, they do offer this as a service now.
  • Lowered development times

  • Simplifies the modeling efforts of variable datasets with unstructured data needing storage.

Return on Investment

  • There is little negative impact in using MongoDB in terms of ROI, as it comes with reasonable pricing policies.
  • In project and workforce management perspective, it is easy to predict the budget since many developers are familiar with MongoDB. We don't need a "special" developer for it, which causes uncertainty of salary for the specialty.
  • MongoDB runs well with most of operating systems, and that's one aspect that makes the product easy to adopt with minimum expenses.

Return on Investment

  • Better development times, this translates into the better distribution of the development team's time
  • When you work with mongo the learning curve is quite short, since having mongo university they themselves provide the learning of this tool so it is easy to work with this tool, without paying additional cost in courses and trainings.
  • You do not need to know about command console since you work with a database administrator graphically, like a desktop application

About MongoDB

MongoDB (from "humongous") is an open source document-oriented database system developed and supported by 10gen. It is part of the NoSQL family of database systems. Instead of storing data in tables as is done in a "classical" relational database, MongoDB stores structured data as JSON-like documents with dynamic schemas (MongoDB calls the format BSON), making the integration of data in certain types of applications easier and faster.

According to the vendor, organizations from cutting-edge startups to the largest companies use MongoDB to create applications never before possible at a fraction of the cost of legacy databases. The vendor says MongoDB is the fastest-growing database ecosystem, with over 10 million downloads, thousands of customers, and over 1,000 technology and service partners.
