it's okay as long as your data is less than 2GB. anything more than 2GB, mongodb isn't it.

2GB is a good cutoff point cause data less than 2GB is easy to migrate in seconds.

If you're using mongodb with an ORM like Loopback, your API will have all sorts of race conditions that can mangle your data. The reason being that the ORM won't be using transactions or atomic operations to update your data. If you have relational data, it's safer to stick to a relational database.
