The official C# driver for MongoDB, released by 10gen, provides a fast and efficient way to interact with MongoDB databases from C#. The driver is fully supported by 10gen and includes features such as automatic connection pooling, thread-safe main classes, and support for new MongoDB features. It also offers full serialization support for C# classes, allowing developers to easily integrate their domain model classes with MongoDB, and provides interoperability with JavaScript and other languages through a JSON reader and writer. Additionally, the driver supports GridFS for large documents and is compatible with Visual Studio 2008 and 2010, as well as .NET 3.5.
