There’s plenty of space in the cloud for innovators looking to develop and launch a next-generation cloud, on-demand or SaaS enabling application. It’s fun up here. And of course, from this vantage point, we’re on top of the next big thing.

We launched the all-new CloudXcelerator cloud incubation program with the goal of helping a select few companies succeed in developing and launching their application. And when you do achieve success, so will we. If you are eligible for this program and are selected, you will be able to develop, test and run your cloud application on our robust, reliable and high performance FastFiber Network™ infrastructure. You will enjoy discounted hosting, discounted storage, free publicity, free lead generation, and co-marketing funds.

But not everyone is considered CloudXcelerator material. Eligibility and selection process for this program is very strict. Please review the requirements below to ensure you meet the minimum criteria before applying.

MongoDB (from "humongous") is a scalable, high-performance, open source, schema-free, document-oriented database. It bridges the gap between key-value stores (which are fast and highly scalable) and traditional RDBMS systems (which provide structured schemas and powerful queries). Key features of MongoDB include dynamic queries, fast in-place updates, efficient storage of binary data, auto-sharding for cloud-level scalability and MapReduce for complex aggregation. MongoDB is well suited for scenarios like the operational data store of web site infrastructure, data caching, real-time performance counters and problems requiring high scalability or the ability to easily modify fields.
