EDIT: deleted b/c I didn't make my point clearly.

  Call me stupid but I can imagine that losing data is a problem for a database company. That said MongoDB has a simple flag which allows you to choose how to handle writes. The app can 'wait' for writes to be applied to one node, all nodes, some number of nodes etc.

    Heh, that probably wasn't phrased well. Let's try again: Dynamo (and thus Cassandra) is designed for write speed and durability. What is MongoDB designed for?

    (assuming you're talking about safe writes opposed to normal writes) then you kill performance... which was one of the main reasons for switching to mongodb in the first place

  It would be better for the conversation if you edit to clarify your point rather than delete...
