K. Scott Allen has written an interesting blog post on using MongoDB with C#.
I've been investigating MongoDB for sometime now with IronPython as part of an prototype architecture that requires storing large amounts of logging/event type data. A document based alternative to an RDBMS was ideal given the particular key/value nature of the data. MongoDB supports capped collections, where one can specify a maximum collection size. Given that items are inherently stored in insertion order, log/event operations across millions of items are extremely efficient.
Turns out to be aimed at newcomers - i.e. bit too much of a sales effort aimed that those that haven't heard about Azures services.
