Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Databases (formerly Compose)

Compose is my DB of choice for all my web and iOS applications. I am a MongoDB certified developer and have used ibm compose with Mongo to develop web services which provide permanent storage for iOS applications.

Pros

  • Ease of use
  • Cost effective
  • Secure

Cons

  • Web based end is often very slow, times out on occasion
  • I’ve moved from MySQL, which was difficult to admin
  • Auto-backups and security are big plus points
Admin for MySQL was flakey. MongoDB is much easier to use.
Easy to connect, easy to set up, easy to use via a terminal. Just about perfect.
