Meet NoSQL strongest contendar: MongoDB

I can't be happy at all if I need to start to mingle with a destroyed SQL query, that person after person added their own little JOIN, or why not a LEFT JOIN there, and then after 5 years somebody is complaining the report x-y-z is slow. MongoDB, embracing the NoSQL swing, delivers a great, fast, and reliable JSON-like storage, written in C++ and is open-source, on Github. Auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability, MapReduce for complex aggregation - you got it! There's a lot of drivers, PHP, Ruby, Python - and cool GUI starting pop out. Check it out!
