Is MongoDB broken by design?…

Great gem on the comments of an article about MongoDB being broken. Thanks to my colleague Iain Finlayson for spotting this. Also in this post is a link to a fantastically detailed, independent blog post on why MongoDB is broken by design.

By 10gen employee, Matt Asay:-

” I work for 10gen because MongoDB is an excellent, though not perfect, database.
…
I’m not arguing that MongoDB is perfect: it isn’t….
…
Are we done improving scalability? Of course not.
…
MongoDB is not perfect.
…
By Design.
