16. MongoDB + Windows Azure benefits
• PaaS or IaaS deployment
• Java, PHP, Node.JS, .NET, or Python
Flexible
• Many OS options including Windows
Server, CentOS, Ubuntu, SUSE
• MongoDB’s built-in support for horizontal scaling and
Scalable sharding
• Windows Azure’s built-in support for responsive auto-scaling
MongoDB on Windows Azure provides all the benefits customers have come to
expect from cloud computing: elasticity, on-demand capacity, faster time to
market, and pay-for-what-you-use pricing
