Heh, I found this amusing "We also obviously built this on Node.js, anything else and it would take to much time to configure or setup." Couldn't you just use a lightweight Ruby or Python framework (e.g. Sinatra)? And wouldn't any simple data-store do? I'm surprised you even considered MongoDB...

For me, when doing Node development, usually my first instinct is to go for MongoDB. I guess my post conveys that thought. But sure we could have used any simple data store, and we did (parse).

As for Node.js, as I previously said in another comment, I am a former ColdFusion developer, so again I bring many biases from that platform and found Node.js to be super simple to use.

I'm not a Ruby or Python developer but I'm sure it would have taken someone with those skill sets equally as fast.
