NoSQL (“Not only SQL”) enables queries and analytics against “unstructured” data, which allows for rapid prototyping and agile development of business intelligence applications. MongoDB is the leading NoSQL database, with a fast-growing community of software developers replacing RDBMS with the agile, feature-rich data store. Users enjoy the freedom provided by a dynamic schema and confidence in a solution that easily scales horizontally.
Schireson has over a dozen years of experience in database, web and enterprise software solutions. Prior to his building and extending 10gen/MongoDB-s market leadership at 10gen, Max spent seven years at MarkLogic, provider of a database for unstructured information, where he played a variety of executive roles including chief operating officer. Under Schireson-s leadership, MarkLogic ranked as the fourth fastest growing software company in Silicon Valley in Deloitte-s 2008 Technology Fast 50. Prior to MarkLogic, Max spent ten years at Oracle where he served as chief applications architect and vice president, e-commerce and self-service applications.
10gen is the initiator, contributor and continual sponsor of MongoDB, offering production support, training, consulting and online management services for the database. Thousands of leading Web 2.0 companies as well as Fortune 500 enterprises have adopted MongoDB. 10gen is funded by Flybridge Capital Partners, Sequoia Capital and Union Square Ventures.
