We performed a comparison between Apache HBase and MongoDB based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about MongoDB, Couchbase, InfluxData and others in NoSQL Databases."Apache HBase is a database used for data storage."
"The solution has good flexibility and very fast performance for searching data."
"The installation is very stable."
"The most valuable feature is that you can store unstructured data, which is helpful when you don't know what the best structure should be and you cannot use a relational database because of that."
"It can handle a lot of files quickly."
"The solution does not hold data in tabular format like SQL does but rather clusters data so that it can link on a large scale."
"It's easy to add and remove things in MongoDB. You can alter the tables. MongoDB is faster at reading, slower at writings."
"It's super easy to develop a couple of solutions for clients with MongoDB, like a quick web page with no clear data structure that they need to spin up quickly to validate some sort of MDTP."
"We've found the product to be scalable."
"I don't like using Apache HBase to store huge amounts of data because of many performance issues."
"They could provide more documentation and examples for adding pipeline stages."
"More stable indexes would be helpful in a future release. That's been an issue for some time. I don't know if it's been fixed now but we transitioned to it because we needed a search index to be able to search for things and if that goes or starts disappearing, we have to move away from that solution. I don't know if they fixed it, last time I had this issue was three years ago so they might have solved it."
"The MongoDB documentation can be a little complicated sometimes."
"I think that MongoDB's search engine should be improved."
"I would like to see the scalability and security improved."
"The dashboard is an area of concern in the solution where improvements are required."
"The product's data consistency could be more efficient than traditional SQLs."
"I suppose it could be a little more secure."
