From our Customers
With foursquare's growing popularity, we were fast approaching the point where it would no longer be feasible to store user checkins on a single physical machine. MongoDB's auto-sharding capabilities enabled us to easily transition to a multi-node cluster that will enable us to continue to grow for the foreseeable future.
