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.

Support on banking at Aithent
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

"We put MongoDB on AWS for a specific project, and it's easy to use."
"It is easy to use."
"It can handle a lot of files quickly."
"MongoDB is flexible and it allows other applications to be added."
"The solution scales very well and is very easy to replicate."
"Most of the features are very nice and MongoDB is a solution that I would recommend."
"The tool is also user-friendly."
"The installation is very stable."
"So far, we find stability to be very reasonable, it is dependable and we do not have any big issues."
"Oracle NoSQL is pretty scalable."
"The features I've found to be most valuable are the speed of reading and writing (read/write performance levels are really high), the transactions model (semantics for data manipulation), and just the overall simplicity of using it."
"The product meets expectations when it comes to stability."
"With Oracle NoSQL, our clients have a highly scalable, simple to set up database that performs very well when data is organized correctly from the beginning."
"Try it! You’ll be impressed."
"NoSQL has high availability; I think it's perfect from a technical perspective, and 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."
 

Cons

"More stable indexes would be helpful in a future release. That's been an issue for some time. I don't know if it's been fixed now but we transitioned to it because we needed a search index to be able to search for things and if that goes or starts disappearing, we have to move away from that solution. I don't know if they fixed it, last time I had this issue was three years ago so they might have solved it."
"I suppose it could be a little more secure."
"The solution should have better integration."
"We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries."
"There is a need for improvement in MongoDB's customer support."
"I suppose it could be a little more secure."
"We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries."
"Lacks sufficient scalability and elasticity."
"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."
"You will get high performance when you organize your data correctly at the beginning. Otherwise, there are instability issues."
"The installation is difficult."
"I would rate Oracle NoSQL six or 6.5 out of ten based on my experience."
"We've had some issues with stability. During our testing, we were able to drop an entire database by writing huge amounts of data."
"Handling big data in a user-friendly way is currently a bit of an issue. The dashboard for this needs some work."
"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."
"The main areas that need improvement with NoSQL are in the area of big data and user-friendly presentation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our customers pay for yearly licenses for MongoDB."
"It's open-source."
"We are using the Community Edition of MongoDB."
"It is rather expensive."
"The pricing is favorable if you opt to install MongoDB on an Amazon EC2 instance as you won't have to pay for the extra Atlas services and can instead manage the scaling yourself. This allows for a cost-effective solution and using MongoDB on a small scale, I have been able to utilize it for free."
"You only have to pay for the paid version, not the open-source version."
"There are different licenses available to be purchased, such as individual, premium, or enterprise."
"MongoDB's pricing is reasonable."
"The product is expensive and Oracle could work to lower the licensing cost."
