    I hope this site's not built on SQL if you're trying to throw a jab and mongodb. "Error establishing a database connection"

    "For the “Lightning Consult” plan it costs US$ 450,00 per hour, and you have to buy at least 2, so it cost at least US$ 900,00 to any company. "

    At first I thought they were charging 45 thousand an hour till I clicked through to Mongo's page and realized author is using the Brazilian/European commas instead of periods (price is $450 an hour).

    Wasn't this one of the algorithmically generated headlines?

    I will second RoboMongo being my go-to frontend. (Half the frontends recommend in the mongo docs are defunct!) It's really quite hard to be PhpMyAdmin as a very useful universal db tool.

    I will also unabashedly plug my own budding frontend, which I strongly encourage all of you to take a look at and help flesh out! https://github.com/classicspecs/Flask-MongoMyAdmin

    I didn't expect so much traffic on my blog! :)

    Well: I think that things will normalize now. (at least I hope!)

    MongoDB's limitations have been well publicized over the past few years, but if you need another reason to avoid using it, take a look at which bug tracker they use (https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-3110). JIRA. You simply can't trust code coming from a team that uses JIRA as their bug tracker.

    Please stop posting these. Nothing new in the post. Yes, MongoDB is overrated. Documents store should be capable of doing a whole lot more than MongoDB offers. Sign up to be notified when Amisa server becomes generally available. http://www.amisalabs.com/ Thanks in advance for your interest.
