Most of the FUD comes from the deceptive marketing 10gen used to promote MongoDB. It now has a well deserved bad reputation that will never go away,no matter how much startup choosed it.

What deceptive marketing exactly?

Could you cite an example please?

For example, there was noise before about how MongoDB was allegedly tweaking benchmarks.

The funny thing was, from what I've read, they've always had a policy of never ever publishing official benchmarks. Their line was, read the manual, and try it with your own data.

Are you aware of any "deceptive marketing"?

Are you aware of any FUD ? then ask yourself where it comes from. MongoDB is a bad database,If you care about your datas you shouldnt use it.
