MongoDB

MongoDB is a document-oriented database that stores data in flexible JSON-like documents. It does not require a rigid schema, supports horizontal scaling and handles rapidly changing data structures and large volumes of events well.

MongoDB is used in web applications with dynamic entities, analytics and logging systems, product catalogs, chats and services where development speed and data model flexibility matter. Built-in replication and sharding help ensure fault tolerance.

At Dev48 we use MongoDB for services with flexible schemas and heavy read/write loads. We design document structures and indexes, configure replication and backups, and keep an eye on query performance and data integrity.
