MongoDB

We decided to move away from NoSQL solutions because the benefits of flexible schemas became less relevant over time, while maintaining data consistency and handling complex relationships proved more efficient in relational databases. SQL-based systems also offered simpler reporting, querying, and long-term maintainability.

A popular NoSQL document database that stores data in flexible, JSON-like documents, enabling rapid development and easy scaling for modern applications with evolving schemas.

We are prototyping MongoDB as a scalable NoSQL database for systems where flexible schema design is beneficial, particularly for applications with rapidly changing data models, hierarchical data structures, or requirements for horizontal scaling and high write throughput.
