Case Study: SAP achieves scalable, flexible cloud content management with MongoDB

MongoDB Selected as the Core Content Management Component of SAP's Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) Offering

SAP chose MongoDB as a core content management component for its platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering, specifically for the enterprise content management layer. SAP needed a flexible, scalable way to manage data from different applications and support customers as their businesses grew, while also keeping costs and complexity manageable.

MongoDB implemented its document database as the document store for SAP’s on-demand applications, supporting collaborative decision making, data archiving, and retention management in a secure, multi-tenant environment. The result was lower total cost of ownership, increased stability, and the scalability SAP needed to deliver affordable cloud applications that could grow with customer demand.
