For all the talk about how "MongoDB totally has SOME use cases", I've never before heard of a use case where it would be unambiguously better to use a document store. Thanks for explaining that so well.

I've used it well in the past as well.

MongoDB was 5-10x faster than PostgreSQL, Cassandra etc.

If your domain model is structured like a document then MongoDB is a pretty great fit.

Even if it is better, why Mongo? Why not Riak?
