With a theme of “Giant Ideas,” MongoDB is breaking new ground as a hot NoSQL database. This week at its MongoDB World conference, the company declared that its database enables developers to launch their giant ideas and create big things. As part of that, Mongo DB announced Atlas, its new database-as-a-service offering, as well as a new MongoDB Connector for Apache Spark.
That connector enables developers and data scientists to gain insights from live, operational and streaming data. However, the company continues to gain momentum in the database world and is growing and picking up new customers—many of which have come from traditional SQL databases like Oracle and Microsoft’s SQL Server.
