12/27/2023 0 Comments Mongodb atlasA database is a service, or data is a service. Shimel: And I think that – it’s more than just a service. Shimel: But of course Atlas comes in as a service. It lent itself to multi-nodes and all of these things much better than relational SQL database. Number two, it was just lighter and easier and more fungible, if you will, especially as we were moving to cloud in 20, right?Ĭloud burst on the scene. Number one, it was easier for developers to do what they wanted to do, how they wanted to do it. But why was it huge? I think you hit it, Andrew. Everybody was using SQL scripts, and whether you were using MySQL or MS SQL, it was – And then the idea of no SQL was really huge. Again, having been there, the original attraction with MongoDB was “no SQL,” right? It was a no sequel database. And five years in, over 25,000 customers, over 100,000 developers signing up every month, it’s just unbelievable. An end-point in the cloud you can read and write from, and build wonderful applications – that’s what MongoDB Atlas was all about. People are gonna move up a whole level of abstraction. But this idea of self-managing databases that we realized six, seven years ago, that was gonna go away. There was this combination of factors, giving developers this document model that was totally native for them, and also democratizing a distributed system right at the time in which cloud was democratizing commodity hardware. At that time when MondoDB was first created, I think it was largely about timing. And the value –Ĭompared to where we were, y’know, when you mentioned when MongoDB was coming out of Silicon Alley so many years ago, it’s just a completely different universe today. This is the foundation on which we can deliver really the world’s preeminent application data platform. We all know that this is the future of the platform. We’ve reached the psychological milestone this same month of 51 percent of our company revenue growing more than 70 percent year over year. We launched MongoDB Atlas, which is our global cloud database service, five years ago this month, and we’re just so excited. It’s the fifth anniversary of Atlas from MongoDB, right?ĭavidson: That’s exactly right. Of course that, as I said, was 15, 17 years ago, right? We’re here to celebrate a birthday/anniversary today, too, and that’s the – If I’m wrong, Andrew, correct me. Shimel: – to New York, and it’s a pretty cool thing. We didn’t wanna be Oracle, right? It was the new guys, the new sequel guys, and they made a name for themselves and did well, right? And so I’m glad to hear you made that move from Silicon Valley – And it was a point of pride, actually, right? I mean, it wasn’t Oracle. But it was shortly after that – eh, shortly it was probably seven or eight years after that at least, I bet, that Mongo started in that Silicon Alley, New York kind of cauldron of tech stuff. And I actually had an office – first company I sold – on John Street, 55 John Street. And at the time, I think the mayor of New York was Mayor David Dinkins, and he had started a project that they were calling Silicon Alley. Y’know, if you couldn’t tell from my funny French accent, I’m from New York originally. And it’s been an amazing journey since that time, just seeing this incredible explosive growth out there over this time. MongoDB, for those who don’t know, is actually headquartered in New York City. I’m a Silicon Valley native originally, but I moved to New York City and found this amazing opportunity here. I’m VP of cloud products here at MongoDB. I’m gonna let you do that, if you don’t mind.ĭavidson: Well, thank you very much. I didn’t give your company, your title, or anything. Andrew, I purposely didn’t say a lot about – I just said Andrew Davidson. Andrew, welcome to TechStrong TV.Īndrew Davidson: Thanks, Alan. Our guest for this segment is Andrew Davidson. Welcome to another segment here on TechStrong TV.
