A lot of Mongo DB bashing on HA. We use it and I love it. Of course we have a dataset suited perfectly for Mongo - large documents with little relational data. We paid $0 and quickly and easily configured a 3 node HA cluster that is easy to maintain and performs great.
Remember, not all software needs to scale to millions of users so something affordable and easy to install, use, and maintain makes a lot of sense. Long story short, use the best tool for the job.
- ahi 10y agoThis has also been my experience. Millions of large documents on a single (beefy) node with a single user it's been fine. Although, the sysadmins had previously left me with flat file xml on shared storage so the bar was pretty low.
