Brief
You describe the users, the job to be done, current tools and any hard date or constraint. A page is enough.
Technologies
MongoDB when the document is the record, not when the schema felt inconvenient
MongoDB is in Hirvex Technologies’ database set for document-shaped workloads: variable payloads, event-like records, certain product catalogs. We do not put a financial ledger in a schemaless collection because it felt faster in week one.
Who this is for. Teams with a genuine document model, or an existing MongoDB estate that needs discipline.
Problems we typically meet
These are the patterns that show up before a useful first release—not abstract “digital transformation” language.
- Mongo was chosen to skip design, and now nobody knows the shape.
- Transactions were needed after the fact.
- Indexes were an afterthought.
- Relational reporting is being forced through aggregation theatre.
How we approach the work
Design document boundaries and indexes as if they were a schema—because they are. If the domain is relational, we will say PostgreSQL or MySQL is the adult choice.
What a serious first release can include
Scope is confirmed in discovery. This is the shape of work we are equipped to deliver—not a menu you must buy in full.
- Document modelling
- Index and query work
- Node.js and Python services on MongoDB
- Takeover and clean-up of existing collections
What we need from you
A useful brief is better than a long one. If you can answer most of the following, we can propose a first slice instead of a theatre estimate.
- Who will use this, and what must they finish in a session?
- Which systems must stay (accounting, payments, identity, a shop)?
- What is already live that we should not break?
- Any hosting region, language or compliance rule that is non-negotiable?
- The date that actually matters—and why.
How an engagement runs
Four steps. No mystery bench.
Scope
We reply with clarifying questions and a first-release outline: modules, roles, integrations and what “done” means.
Build
Named engineers work in visible increments, with staging you can click and a weekly written status.
Run
Launch, handover and a support path. The system is yours to operate—not a black box we disappear from.
Questions we are asked
Is MongoDB your default database?
No. It is used when the data is document-shaped. Relational systems remain the default for most operational business software we build.
Can you migrate MongoDB to PostgreSQL?
Sometimes, when the document was a disguised row. That is a modelling project, not a dump-and-restore.
