Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
Offers reliable engine for legacy needs but requires enhanced cost management and AI features
While MongoDB is a good product, it is also an expensive product for support, and its scalability is acceptable, but the big problem with MongoDB is the cost. For security in MongoDB, we work with encrypted databases by default, but we have not contracted the security options in our contract because it is too expensive, so we only implement encrypted databases without the security pack, which is very expensive for us; in security, we are at the first steps, just using encrypted databases. I think additional features needed in MongoDB include perhaps vector databases, as I think they are not supported right now.

Support on banking at Aithent
Handles large data volumes effectively but connection issues require attention
The Oracle NoSQL solution is used primarily for storing data for our web applications. We work alongside the DBA team for this purpose, given that specific departments manage aspects of its use. We choose it specifically to handle large scales of data, such as in one of our bank customer's scenarios using more than nine hundred gigabytes of data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"MongoDB is very valuable for us due to the large amount of entries that we can install in the database."
"Sharding is an excellent feature of MongoDB."
"It's easy to use."
"The solution is a very dynamic product, it becomes extremely easy for us to support user requirements and we also make use of the simplicity of a cloud redeployment."
"Most of the features are very nice and MongoDB is a solution that I would recommend."
"My advice for anybody who is considering MongoDB is that when we want to have flexibility in storing our data, I recommend using it."
"MongoDB is flexible and it allows other applications to be added."
"Scalability seems good. I've never been even close to finding the limits. I've run a couple of notes of redundancy but I've never had any problems with scalability."
"Try it! You’ll be impressed."
"So far, we find stability to be very reasonable, it is dependable and we do not have any big issues."
"NoSQL has high availability; I think it's perfect from a technical perspective, and it's quick to run and go."
"The product meets expectations when it comes to stability."
"The features I've found to be most valuable are the speed of reading and writing (read/write performance levels are really high), the transactions model (semantics for data manipulation), and just the overall simplicity of using it."
"With Oracle NoSQL, our clients have a highly scalable, simple to set up database that performs very well when data is organized correctly from the beginning."
"Oracle NoSQL is pretty scalable."
"The tool is easy to learn."
 

Cons

"The scalability of the product is acceptable, but with MongoDB, the big problem is the cost."
"The scalability of the solution has room for improvement."
"The user interface is not as friendly as Oracle, which is something that can be improved."
"It would be much more useful if I have an admin user and a password."
"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. Instead of MongoDB, we will use Oracle Database because for a transactional service, you have to rely on RDBMS ACID properties. I would love to work on MongoDB by using my mobile phone. When I am working remotely or traveling and have some instances deployed on my server, I should be able to check through my mobile whether all the data is being pulled. GitHub has a similar feature, where it lets you read from the laptop, and you can also pull and push with your mobile phone. I would request MongoDB to provide such a feature. Basically, I want a mobile version for both iOS and Android versions."
"There can be stability issues."
"The performance could be faster."
"I don't see a lot of areas that need improvement."
"I would rate Oracle NoSQL six or 6.5 out of ten based on my experience."
"You will get high performance when you organize your data correctly at the beginning. Otherwise, there are instability issues."
"The installation is difficult."
"The main areas that need improvement with NoSQL are in the area of big data and user-friendly presentation."
"Handling big data in a user-friendly way is currently a bit of an issue. The dashboard for this needs some work."
"Oracle could improve how NoSQL works in containers. I don't think NoSQL needs any new features, but I want to see new features in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. I would like to see some improvements in OCI's building options."
"Focusing on making the administration easier compared to other solutions like MongoDB could be beneficial. Simplifying the administrative tasks could enhance the user experience."
"We've had some issues with stability. During our testing, we were able to drop an entire database by writing huge amounts of data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 is an annual subscription for the use of this solution."
"MongoDB is not expensive."
"MongoDB's pricing is not reasonable, but it is not as expensive as the others."
"I believe that the licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"It's a community edition, so we do not pay anything."
"The solution is open source, so it is free."
"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."
"The product is expensive and Oracle could work to lower the licensing cost."
