mongodb is the best database in the whole wide world at the moment. I encourage everyone to jump in mongodb for agile web scale development with full big data capability.

So does this mean document level locking has been implemented or just the foundation for its future implementation has been laid?

I can't hold my breath much longer! :-)

Edit: docs don't make any mention of it but then again they probably haven't updated them yet (fingers crossed!) http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/faq/concurrency/#what-type-of...

A lot of hype... And we still have db level locking. If document level is too difficult, at LEAST do collection level (not that it is too much better, but least it some real improvement).

Well, I think I must disagree with you in here.

I'm sure that it is a viable choice for some use cases, it's just that I didn't found a use case for it yet.

Being able to choose from PostgreSQL, Redis, Cassandra, heck, even ElasticSearch made me always choose one of those over MongoDB, at least for the problems which I had been trying to solve.

Oh? How is it better than rethinkdb (at the same job)?

the1 won't tell you. S/he's teasing.
