Stack Overflow & MongoDB Research Unveils Developer Productivity Struggles` The research survey conducted by Stack Overflow and MongoDB Research revealed that developers are facing significant challenges in their work, including spending too much time on infrastructure maintenance, heavy job demands, and the need to integrate with multiple services. The survey also highlighted a disconnect between business leaders and developers, with many feeling that companies are not capitalizing on their skills and abilities. To address these challenges, MongoDB launched MongoDB Stitch, a platform that allows developers to focus on building applications rather than managing data manipulation code or backend infrastructure. The research also explored the cloud adoption landscape, finding that security regulations and regulatory concerns are major barriers to cloud migration. However, the survey also found that many developers fully understand the cost benefits of cloud-hosted DBaaS and believe it results in increased productivity and a faster time to market.
