MongoDB has been the most wanted database for the second year in a row, according to the Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2018, which involved over 100,000 respondents. The platform's popularity has steadily increased due to its ease of use and flexibility, as well as the release of MongoDB Atlas, a fully managed database service. MongoDB continues to innovate with new features such as change streams, retryable writes, and multi-document ACID transactions. Its document model offers developers increased productivity, while its native replication and horizontal partitioning provide reliability and scalability without added complexity. The database can be deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment, supporting various development languages including JavaScript, Python, and Golang. The survey's results validate MongoDB's efforts to build a platform wanted by developers worldwide.
