Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
Offers reliable engine for legacy needs but requires enhanced cost management and AI features
While MongoDB is a good product, it is also an expensive product for support, and its scalability is acceptable, but the big problem with MongoDB is the cost. For security in MongoDB, we work with encrypted databases by default, but we have not contracted the security options in our contract because it is too expensive, so we only implement encrypted databases without the security pack, which is very expensive for us; in security, we are at the first steps, just using encrypted databases. I think additional features needed in MongoDB include perhaps vector databases, as I think they are not supported right now.

Handles large data volumes effectively but connection issues require attention
The Oracle NoSQL solution is used primarily for storing data for our web applications. We work alongside the DBA team for this purpose, given that specific departments manage aspects of its use. We choose it specifically to handle large scales of data, such as in one of our bank customer's scenarios using more than nine hundred gigabytes of data.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"MongoDB is simpler to learn and implement than traditional SQL solutions like MySQL."
"My impression is that the initial setup is straightforward."
"It's super easy to develop a couple of solutions for clients with MongoDB, like a quick web page with no clear data structure that they need to spin up quickly to validate some sort of MDTP."
"The aggregation framework is very powerful when elaborating on data."
"The community is great if you have problem."
"MongoDB is a NoSQL tool that gives us much freedom to manipulate how the data works."
"One of the biggest benefits is the speed and flexibility of the documents, especially when it comes to modifications."
"I found that MongoDB is most valuable for storing school-related queries. It's also user-friendly, and I found no difficulty accessing it. Setting it up is easy too."
"Oracle NoSQL is pretty scalable."
"NoSQL has high availability. I think it's perfect from a technical perspective. It's quick to run and go."
"We have a support agreement with Oracle, ensuring full support for the product. It is crucial for our public-facing features. Oracle NoSQL is easy to manage and has fast data retrieval. Its compatibility with Oracle Database is seamless, making integration between NoSQL and relational databases smooth and effortless. Oracle NoSQL and NoSQL data replication in our environment works efficiently. Oracle fully supports it, and we can easily configure and manage authentication for the NoSQL database."
"The tool is easy to learn."
"The product meets expectations when it comes to stability."
 

Cons

"It has certain limitations when it comes to handling hierarchical data, enforcing relationships, and performing complex joins, which should be taken into account when designing databases for applications with intricate data requirements."
"The solution should more easily integrate with custom code."
"When third-party data warehouses are integrated, we are seeing some ETL job performance issues."
"There is a need for improvement in MongoDB's customer support."
"The solution could have more integration."
"There was a need for integrating relational database capabilities, however, MongoDB has introduced a relational converter that allows conversion between SQL and NoSQL."
"Some of the solution's transaction capabilities can be improved."
"Simplifying the aggregation framework would be an improvement."
"Focusing on making the administration easier compared to other solutions like MongoDB could be beneficial. Simplifying the administrative tasks could enhance the user experience."
"The installation is difficult."
"Oracle could improve how NoSQL works in containers. I don't think NoSQL needs any new features, but I want to see new features in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. I would like to see some improvements in OCI's building options."
"Handling big data in a user-friendly way is currently a bit of an issue. The dashboard for this needs some work."
"I would rate Oracle NoSQL six or 6.5 out of ten based on my experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our customers pay for yearly licenses for MongoDB."
"We use the open-source version, which is available to use free of charge."
"I believe that the licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"It's open-source."
"It's a community edition, so we do not pay anything."
"The pricing is normal. Price-wise, the product is not too much expensive."
"I currently use the solution's community edition which is free."
"MongoDB is an open-source solution."
"The product is expensive and Oracle could work to lower the licensing cost."
