10gen

10gen, now known as MongoDB, Inc., is a company that developed MongoDB, a popular database management system designed for handling large volumes of data. Unlike traditional databases that use structured tables, MongoDB uses a flexible document-based model, allowing for more dynamic data storage. This makes it easier for developers to work with complex data types and structures. MongoDB is widely used in modern applications, particularly for web and mobile apps, due to its scalability, flexibility, and ease of use in managing data efficiently. The company has grown significantly since its founding in 2007, contributing to the NoSQL movement in databases.
