#637Earlier quoted context omitted.
I'd never heard of tokumx, but that would have be nice to know about when dealing with a large bioinformatics project I did on mongo, I'll have to check it out! Is the remote US only or ?
We're big fans of tokumx. It's not perfect, but it's a big step up from vanilla Mongo right now (though the upcoming 3.0 changes with the new WiredTiger engine promise to catch up at least most of the way). US residency is not a hard requirement - we currently employee Canadian and European developers in addition to our US-based staff.

Healthy lunch and drinks
Healthy and not so healthy snacks. We take our candy seriously!
