History
Development of MongoDB began at 10gen in 2007, when the company was building a platform as a service similar to Windows Azure or Google App Engine. In 2009, MongoDB was open sourced as a stand-alone product with an AGPL license.
In March 2010, from version 1.4, MongoDB has been considered production ready.
The latest stable version, 2.4.0, was released in March 2013.
