    Data Modeling: Sample E-Commerce System with MongoDB

    The rich document capabilities and atomic operation guarantees in MongoDB makes it possible to model many different applications. Even rigorous requirements of conventional applications like e-commerce system are possible in a document database. This data model (i.e. "schema design,") is useful for developing applications around any restricted resource system, not just e-commerce systems.
