Why Did So Many Startups Choose MongoDB?

Have you ever worked on a significant project using MongoDB?

I did. I wouldn't use it again. But reliability just wasn't an issue. There was a time when there were insane defaults that made this an issue, but that's a long time ago.

I am working on a significant project using MongoDB. Reliability absolutely is an issue even with significant engineering resources thrown at it.

Any idea about Memsql? We are evaluating it at our company and all the info is kind of fuzzy.

Feel free to reach out to me on our public Slack channel to clear up anything that is fuzzy! I'm an engineer at MemSQL and want to know (1) how I can help and (2) how we can provide non-fuzzy information to the rest of the community.

MemSQL as in the distributed relational data warehouse product? If so, it's highly recommended, probably the best data warehouse solution you can run if you're not going with something managed (like redshift or bigquery).

For those actually needing scalable, resilient nosql, CouchBase ia worth evaluating.
