"There is no doubt that MongoDB has benefitted from an aggressive marketing push. There are more MongoDB conferences held (organized by 10gen) and MongoDB books written (mainly by 10gen employees) than for the other NoSQL datastores combined."

Latest developments around MongoDB remind me the history of Oracle DB described in "The Difference Between God and Larry Ellison..." book: they basically were selling a DB that was far away from prime time. I'm not surprised at all that people may run into the issues with bleeding edge software - I figure that's the price that early adopters must pay anyway.
