Description-en: object/document-oriented database (metapackage)
MongoDB is a high-performance, open source, schema-free
document-oriented data store that's easy to deploy, manage
and use. It's network accessible, written in C++ and offers
the following features:
.
* Collection oriented storage - easy storage of object-style data
* Full index support, including on inner objects
* Query profiling
* Replication and fail-over support
* Efficient storage of binary data including large objects (e.g. videos)
* Auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability
.
High performance, scalability, and reasonable depth of
functionality are the goals for the project.
.
This is a convenience metapackage that depends on all the mongodb parts:
the server and the clients.
