Moving On From MongoDB
The last seven years, I have worked with, and for, MongoDB. I have seen it grow from a small start-up, then called 10gen, with fewer than a hundred people, into a NASDAQ listed company with over a thousand employees. But now, after all these years, it's time for me to move on.
I've learned a lot, and I have worked with very good people. In these seven years I rewrote the PHP driver (twice), wrote an HHVM driver (remember HHVM?), and implemented time zone support in the MongoDB server. I will be leaving the PHP driver for MongoDB in Jeremy's and other colleagues' capable hands.
I have come to greatly admire both the engineers at MongoDB, as well as the technology that we all created. I am a big fan of MongoDB, and will continue to speak and write about it.
What's next for me? That I'll explain in my next post.

All the best with your future endeavours!
If you are interested in a more aquatic experience/lifestyle than London affords, you are welcome to join me in mastering the sailor's trade. Who knows, we might end up organizing a 'coding and sailing' academy? :-) :-) :-)
