MongoDB

Top Executive: President and CEO Dev Ittycheria

MongoDB develops a NoSQL database that, like competing NoSQL databases, positions itself as an alternative to traditional relational database systems as better able to meet the demands of today's big data environments.

In November MongoDB launched MongoDB 3.4 with new data storage engines and data governance features, capabilities the company expects will extend the software's potential market for enterprise-class applications.

In March MongoDB expanded its OEM Partner Program with new design review and development support programs that help ISV partners embed and deploy the MongoDB database with their applications.

Also in March MongoDB, based in New York and Palo Alto, Calif., began offering a new, free tier for MongoDB Atlas, the company's database-as-a-service offering.
