We used MongoDB in my last job and I just want to say that I would have given up management of that beast in a heartbeat. We didn't stress MongoDB nearly enough to warrant all the effort required to construct it, monitor it, back it up, etc. Even if the performance was crappy, I would have lobbied hard to change to DocumentDB ASAP.

While I don't love MongoDB, I don't find it to be especially difficult to run. I'm running ~200 instances of MongoDB with a small team and it consumes very little of my attention.

ElasticSearch on the other hand...

Why is Elastic so difficult to run for you?
