10gen Aims to Make MongoDB King of the NoSQLs

Merriman's vision was to build a DB that would scale on commodity hardware and in the cloud. Their customers include names like Intuit, Shutterfly and foursquare. Like other NoSQL DBs, they really excel when the data needs and read/write loads are big. For this reason, they are perfectly suited to much of the social networking and big web based apps and networks that we all use today.
