Didn't you hear? Mongodb is webscale and runs in the cloud. That's all you really need to know, please ignore any rational arguments and just repeat webscale and cloud endlessly. Remember that if you run into scalability issues in the cloud all you have to do is spin up 300 instances to get the performance of one 5400 rpm laptop drive. The cloud is webscale your laptop is not. Also please ignore that a laptop with an ssd will need about 3000 instances to get the same performance.
