Quotable on 10Gen+MongoDB
Via Pandodaily (an article you definitely should read):
The company has big plans. 10Gen’s vision is to build a software platform company akin to Redhat or Oracle, Schireson says. “That’s the type of company we want to build,†he says. “Those companies don’t get acquired.†— 10gen President, Max Schireson
I’m glad that this is the vision. This is something I’m very positive about. I hope that this vision is realized for Max & the rest of 10gen. This is a company that has raised five rounds of venture funding ($73 million), currently valued at over $550 million.
