On: 12 Months with MongoDB

>you will see a few financial and ecommerce sites

Could you provide some examples? Scanning the list I see a couple that have a very periphery relation to financials, but the actual applications have very little financial applicability (and the implementations are trivial).

Though the person you responded to didn't actually say that `"anything that deals with money" has no use for MongoDB"', so you're setting up a strawman regardless.

Thanks, ergo98. I definitely think MongoDB can be used in money applications.

But there's almost always some ACID requirement when you're dealing with accounting, e.g, crediting payment or billing fees.

I would use something that could handle transactional ACID processing in combination with MongoDB depending on the application.

In that case, I apologize. I have seen people using the same argument to claim that MongoDB is unsuitable for use in ecommerce and assumed you were doing the same.

I find that ironic.

That's nice.
