Name        : mongodb
Product     : Fedora 21
Version     : 2.4.13
Release     : 1.fc21
URL         : http://www.mongodb.org
Summary     : High-performance, schema-free document-oriented database
Description :
Mongo (from "humongous") is a high-performance, open source, schema-free
document-oriented database. MongoDB is written in C++ and offers the following
features:
    * Collection oriented storage: easy storage of object/JSON-style data
    * Dynamic queries
    * Full index support, including on inner objects and embedded arrays
    * Query profiling
    * Replication and fail-over support
    * Efficient storage of binary data including large objects (e.g. photos
    and videos)
    * Auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability (currently in early alpha)
    * Commercial Support Available

A key goal of MongoDB is to bridge the gap between key/value stores (which are
fast and highly scalable) and traditional RDBMS systems (which are deep in
functionality).
