Equal Experts and 10gen Announce Implementation Partnership

SAN FRANCISCO, CA and LONDON--(Marketwire - Aug 3, 2011) - Equal Experts, an experienced Agile IT delivery consultancy, and 10gen, which sponsors the leading open source, NoSQL database MongoDB, today announced an implementation partnership agreement. Equal Experts will utilise 10gen's industry leading document database, MongoDB, to supply outstanding enterprise solutions. The partnership furthers Equal Experts' goal to provide a competitive advantage to its customers through innovation.

MongoDB is an open source database, combining scalability, performance and ease of use, with traditional relational database features such as dynamic queries and indexes. It has become the leading NoSQL database choice, with thousands of Fortune 500 enterprises and leading Web 2.0 companies developing innovative large-scale applications and performing real-time "Big Data" analytics with MongoDB.

For the past year, Equal Experts has been successfully delivering MongoDB based retail, telecommunications and marketing solutions and both companies are working together on multiple projects, most notably at a leading European mobile and broadband provider.

"MongoDB provides us with a scalable, high performance, open source database with the flexibility to support multiple types of entities with ease," explains Ryan Sikorsky, director at Equal Experts. "This perfectly complements our Agile software development methodology and the excellent support and consultancy skills 10gen provide help us ensure our solutions are production ready."

"We're thrilled to work with Equal Experts," adds Max Schireson, president at 10gen. "MongoDB adoption in the enterprise is growing rapidly and this partnership will help us and our customers accelerate that adoption. We look forward to carrying on our close working relationship on numerous future projects."
