Language: Portuguese
Title: MongoDB in Abrantes: A Reliable and Flexible Partner for Over a Decade!
Abstract: "At the beginning of its digital transformation journey, more than 15 years ago, the Municipality of Abrantes was searching for a robust and flexible solution to preserve the digital information produced daily—one that would also comply with archival science principles. That’s when they discovered MongoDB: an open and powerful tool that won the team over with its performance and practicality.
This encounter led to a solid partnership that continues to this day, earning the respect of everyone who has worked with it—even in higher education, where it has been introduced as a data persistence tool.
With MongoDB, we preserve our History, shape the Present, and envision the Future!"
