Transforms data flow with adaptable schema and smooth public cloud deployment
One of our business units uses MongoDB, and we developed an ETL pipeline that extracts data from MongoDB and transfers it into our data warehouse MongoDB is a NoSQL database that is similar to a document database. It offers flexibility in schema adaptation, allowing us to change the schema and…

Ideal, stable, good support and it helps with the developer console
I have used MongoDB, MySQL, and Oracle. MongoDB is entirely different. It's a NoSQL platform database, so it's totally different. It is a little bit hard to work with. The way it is organized and structured is different. But between Microsoft Azure MySQL and Oracle, they are pretty similar. * Cost: Microsoft is not a preferred platform. Their licensing is very complex and expensive. Oracle is much better. * AI: In terms of data analytics and AI, Microsoft is better. Certain complex transformations are easier to do in MSSQL. So, if you have to analyze data from a lot of different data sources, it becomes much easier. However, the usage of the particular product depends on the project. Personally, I would like to work on MySQL. But in certain cases where the application scale is very large, and custom models from certain regions of the globe prefer Microsoft, then we have to go with MSSQL. But technically, there is not much difference.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Overall, MongoDB has helped manage and analyze attachment data."
"The geospatial index feature is useful for dealing with latitude and longitude data."
"My impression is that the initial setup is straightforward."
"It is convenient to use because we can do manipulations with the JSON data that we get. There are also a lot of joins and associations with MongoDB, which makes it easy to use for us."
"The most valuable feature is that you can store unstructured data, which is helpful when you don't know what the best structure should be and you cannot use a relational database because of that."
"It facilitates the generation of heatmaps for graphical data analysis."
"The most valuable feature of MongoDB is the predefined functions available when using Node.js. These functions simplify the query process, making it user-friendly and straightforward."
"The tool is also user-friendly."
"The product is good for tuning."
"The solution's performance is good."
"MySQL is very stable and works beautifully with large amounts of data."
"It's easy to use."
"It is an established open-source database with a vast array of resources available, ensuring you can learn everything needed."
"The stability of the solution is very good. I wouldn't have used it for the past seven years if I was not satisfied."
"Oracle MySQL Cloud Service handles data easily."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
 

Cons

"We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries."
"Our program developer finds it to be a little unstable, development-wise."
"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."
"From my point of view, they need a totally free IDE to work at high levels."
"MongoDB could be more secure."
"At the start, connecting to the database via Compass or through a direct ID was a challenge."
"Actually, with MongoDB, it's difficult to calculate the return on investment; it's too expensive for our use."
"The solution could include more integrations with other platforms."
"In a production environment, upgrading from a lower to an upper version is a very long process that needs to be improved."
"Improvement could be made in the workflow, particularly when it comes to making changes or implementing certain functions."
"The solution should offer memory management."
"The user interface is not simple."
"Integrating business intelligence or NLP solutions would help us save time and would prevent us from having to take a deep dive. Data problems seem to multiply on the system when you interact with it. Automation would save a lot of man-hours."
"The tool’s stability must be improved."
"The product has many bugs."
"There could be improvements, particularly in Firebird, where the indexing is limited to just a single B-tree index, leading to poor performance for large-scale queries."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MongoDB is not expensive."
"The solution is open source so is free."
"It is rather expensive."
"MongoDB is an open-source product."
"We use the open-source version, which is available to use free of charge."
"I don't know, but I have heard from people who procure it that it is much cheaper than Oracle."
"We are using the Community Edition of MongoDB."
"There is an enterprise license and it could be cheaper. We are using the free open source version."
"The license is expensive."
"The product is free since it is an open-source tool."
"While the core solution itself is not exorbitant, the support services are associated with a significant maintenance fee, often ranging from twenty to thirty percent."
"Oracle has a better licensing model compared to its competitors."
"It is an open-source product."
"The product is expensive."
"The solution’s paid plans are expensive."
