Mongo (from "humongous") is a high-performance, open source, schema-free document-oriented database. MongoDB is written in C++ and offers the following features: * Collection oriented storage: easy storage of object/JSON-style data * Dynamic queries * Full index support, including on inner objects and embedded arrays * Query profiling * Replication and fail-over support * Efficient storage of binary data including large objects (e.g. photos and videos) * Auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability (currently in early alpha) * Commercial Support Available A key goal of MongoDB is to bridge the gap between key/value stores (which are fast and highly scalable) and traditional RDBMS systems (which are deep in functionality).
This package provides the mongo server software, mongo sharding server software, default configuration files, and init scripts.
