Technical Architect at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
A fast and affordable solution that is scalable and has a nice dashboard
The product enables the users to query results faster. It maintains all the versions of the changes done on a specific node. A traditional blockchain would take time, but Amazon QLDB is a bit faster. We have to do many operations in blockchain to read data, but QLDB comes with an easy syntax. The product provides a nice dashboard to view all the information.

Have managed customer transaction data efficiently and supported high-demand workloads with reliable performance
The integration between data warehouse could be improved. Nowadays, a lot of data is getting generated, so certain ETL flexible scripts with backend database integrations would be an improvement I could see. I will not be able to clearly say there is currently a deficiency there. All our DBs are integrated with a backend data warehouse, not necessarily AWS. When third-party data warehouses are integrated, we are seeing some ETL job performance issues. It is a one-off scenario so we have not thoroughly done any troubleshooting on that. It could be platform or third-party related issue. From the AWS standpoint, if robust integration and data warehouse integration specific tools are added in the advanced suite, that would definitely be helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product enables the users to query results faster."
"The feature I find most valuable is that it is easy to use and even a non-technical person will be able to understand it."
"I would recommend MongoDB because it is widely used by many organizations."
"The solution scales very well and is very easy to replicate."
"Most of the features are very nice and MongoDB is a solution that I would recommend."
"MongoDB is cool; there is a difference between relational databases and newer databases like MongoDB, and MongoDB is scalable and fast."
"The solution does not hold data in tabular format like SQL does but rather clusters data so that it can link on a large scale."
"Its flexibility, and cost. It is reasonably priced."
"The initial setup isn't really that complex."
 

Cons

"The product should enable users to import data from various databases."
"The stability could be better."
"Its security features can be better. Sometimes, my higher authority says that we are not going to use MongoDB because it doesn't provide that much security for the RDBMS or relational data that we use for transactions."
"I think it's very expensive on the Atlas enterprise side."
"I feel that most people don't know a lot about MongoDB, so maybe they could add some more documentation and tutorials."
"It has certain limitations when it comes to handling hierarchical data, enforcing relationships, and performing complex joins, which should be taken into account when designing databases for applications with intricate data requirements."
"Simplifying the aggregation framework would be an improvement."
"The scalability of the solution has room for improvement."
"MongoDB should be more stable, and support should be more efficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not expensive."
"At the moment, all customers are using the community version."
"MongoDB is a free solution. We wanted to have high availability and the subscription cost was quite expensive because the basic one is free and then when you want to have some other replications or other features you will need to pay money. Overall the solution is expensive."
"There is an enterprise license and it could be cheaper. We are using the free open source version."
"The pricing is favorable if you opt to install MongoDB on an Amazon EC2 instance as you won't have to pay for the extra Atlas services and can instead manage the scaling yourself. This allows for a cost-effective solution and using MongoDB on a small scale, I have been able to utilize it for free."
"There are different licenses available to be purchased, such as individual, premium, or enterprise."
"The solution is open source so is free."
"I don't know, but I have heard from people who procure it that it is much cheaper than Oracle."
"I believe that MongoDB is free."

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for MongoDB?
I think it depends on the provider. For example, on DigitalOcean, they have strict routing. You have to whitelist an IP address, or you risk getting DDoS. Then if you're going for the Atlas one tha...
What needs improvement with MongoDB?
I don't really have a deep dive into it, but I see that MongoDB Enterprise Advanced has RAG and Vertex support. However, we really didn't use it because I think one thing also is that Prisma, the O...
