Overall Satisfaction with MongoDB
We use MongoDB in a testing environment to better understand popular NoSQL databases to be able to prepare our students for development positions.
- Ease of use in application development.
- Schema friendly design... it looks and acts like JSON objects developers are familiar with.
- Excellent community of developers to assist with advanced configuration matters.
- Server stats rely on command line interfaces with text output. Visualization is available through add on applications, but it would be great to have better native reporting.
- It greatly helps to show alternatives to relational databases.
- SQL
There are use cases for both relational and non-relational databases. MongoDB is simply a different method of storing data, but I find it to be faster and more intuitive than relational models.
