MongoDB

"MongoDB is a practical database for practical problems that engineers in the real world have. MongoDB is really designed by people who built large-scale web apps, and [they] want to build the perfect database for the web apps that [they] were building and solve practical problems that [their] customers actually have. That’s gone all the way to their original 1.0 design to the stuff they’re working on today. [The] stuff they’re working on today, they’re working on that because people like you guys - people in this room - went to them and said hey, here is this problem that we have. We think if you build feature x into this database, it would make it a lot simpler for us. And that’s the kind of stuff they love doing. I think over the next couple of years it’s only going to continue to evolve into a database that just makes our jobs easier as application developers, which is fantastic."

"MongoDB is a critical part of our infrastructure because its dynamic schema allows us to inject patient data and maintains the fidelity at the Hospital yet still allows us to operate on it at runtime in a way that can deliver clinical outcomes."
