MongoDb is the database that Mate is experimenting for applcations subject to a very high transactional load that must be delivered in a distributed and partitioned environment.
The most interesting feature of MongoDb is its ability to work as a document-oriented NoSql database still offering a familiar interface for a relational-accostumed user, thanking a very simple and intuitive API.
One of the most interesting Web Framework to use with MongoDb is Lift with Rogue as access library to the database.
Using these technologies Mate is developing two applications: one is for service booking, and the other is for the fight against the counterfeiting.
