🧠 How It Works
mongo coordinates its core functionality through a modular C++ pipeline. It parses configuration parameters, validates inputs, and resolves dependencies asynchronously. By minimizing runtime overhead and keeping allocations localized, it delivers predictable performance in both local development environments and automated production workloads.
🎯 Production Use Cases
High-Throughput Storage
Persist and retrieve structured data records with minimal latency and high concurrency.
In-Memory Caching
