Manikandan Gunasekaran - PeerSpot reviewer
Boost authentication and session management with reliable and fast data handling
There is a lot of technical debt in our company, and we need to update to the latest versions. The lack of automation in upgrading clusters from development to production is a concern. A tool for automatically handling such upgrades would reduce operational huddle. Additionally, it would be beneficial if Aerospike had a community version to encourage broader adoption and experimentation.
Uzair Faruqi - PeerSpot reviewer

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It shows better compression and compaction, which is valuable."
"MongoDB is flexible and it allows other applications to be added."
"We haven't had any issues with stability."
"MongoDB stores the JSON data, and it's easy for me to understand because I'm a JavaScript Developer."
"MongoDB has many good replication features and good performance."
"It is very fast - faster than an SQL or MySQL Server."
"The most valuable features of MongoDB are we have a lot of documentation and SQL-based applications that run on it."
"The aggregation framework is really good, allowing a developer to build very complex queries."
"Easier to maintain the data with its document-based storage."
 

Cons

"The lack of automation in upgrading clusters from development to production is a concern."
"I would recommend MongoDB as part of a template if anyone is considering free and open-source templating services such as LibreNMS, but as a standalone, I couldn't advise."
"There was a need for integrating relational database capabilities, however, MongoDB has introduced a relational converter that allows conversion between SQL and NoSQL."
"The MongoDB documentation can be a little complicated sometimes."
"The analytics needs improvement."
"It would help if MongoDB offered a light solution for small projects."
"MongoDB would be improved with more integration, particularly for cloud environments like Google BigQuery."
"MongoDB should be more stable, and support should be more efficient."
"It could be more stable. It would be better if it were more user-friendly like Oracle, which is very easy. For example, creating an index is simple in Oracle. In MongoDB, it's quite challenging to do that. Performance could be better. It's fast and good, but you cannot put every application that you would like to in MongoDB."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use around half a TB of data and spend approximately $36,000 to $40,000 USD per year on Aerospike."
"The pricing is normal. Price-wise, the product is not too much expensive."
"It is rather expensive."
"At the moment, all customers are using the community version."
"MongoDB has a free version. You can also buy the enterprise edition, which is cheaper than Oracle."
"If you want support with the solution you will need to purchase a license and not use the open-source version. The license is a little expensive."
"You only have to pay for the paid version, not the open-source version."
"There is an enterprise license and it could be cheaper. We are using the free open source version."
"The product is affordable."
