Interesting that one of the reasons for their dropping Solaris support is "Operational difficulties." The same would also be valid reason for saying "Farewell" to Mongodb. Anyone that's had to manage a MongoDB database could tell you about regularly having to manually re-synch their secondaries, manually having to run compactions to manage disk space(the power of 2 allocator), the automatic "balancer" process that sends I/O the roof, the rollback files etc. I think MongoDB being so operationally difficult is the prime reason that MongoDB offers a managed MongoDB PaaS offering.
