Mongo is the SF architect’s default database choice, and not surprisingly its trending heavily on Indeed.com. Other NoSQL technologies are seeing similar growth- interestingly Jan 2010 seems to have been the trigger when NoSQL become a significant job trend. The graph below isn’t a scientific or comprehensive list of NoSQL technologies- I just thought it made the point about the date inflexion point. Anyone know what happened that month to kick things off? I should also dig in on location – to see where these Mongo jobs are.
