Part I - Building a Dynamic Customer Profile using MongoDB
Welcome to our series on Building a Financial Crime Mitigation Platform using MongoDB as the unified data platform able to support the demands from modern digital financial operations. In case you missed it, be sure to check out the Series overview.
Unlocking Agentic Power to Modernize Cross-Border Payment Systems
The global payments landscape is a complex web of independent systems enabling international trade. According to Juniper Research, the market reached a value of $187 trillion in 2025 and is projected to hit $224 trillion by 2030. However, operational friction undermines this scale. Failed payments drain the global economy of over $100 billion annually, according to a study by LexisNexis.
PLN Icon Plus Optimizes Energy Delivery for Millions of Indonesians
PLN Icon Plus, a subsidiary of Indonesia’s state-owned electricity company PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN), is at the forefront of Indonesia’s transition toward green, sustainable, and digitally-driven energy solutions.
Edge AI Made Easy: MongoDB and ObjectBox Data Synchronization
AI is currently undergoing a shift, from massive centralized models to distributed, real-world deployments. While the cloud remains the foundation for large-scale AI training and analytics, AI’s next evolution lies at the edge—where data is created, where decisions require instant action, and where connectivity cannot be guaranteed.
Workspaces and New Tiers for Atlas Stream Processing
MongoDB Atlas Stream Processing remains one of the easiest ways to work with streaming data, simplifying near real-time data transformation and integration. This enables developers to use the power of the MongoDB aggregation framework to process data streams from sources like Apache Kafka that drive event-driven applications. To make stream processing even more accessible and cost-effective, we recently introduced workspaces and new processor tiers, providing clearer pricing, more granular control, and faster paths to production.
Redefine Airline Loyalty: Innovation for the Modern Traveler
Driven by shifts in traveler behavior across the globe, airline loyalty is undergoing a profound transformation. Travelers now expect better digital services from airlines. Retailers, streaming platforms, mobility apps, and financial services applications have raised expectations for what a personalized, easy, and meaningful experience should feel like. Those expectations are also carried over into the travel industry.
Heidi’s AI Scribe Scales to 81M Clinical Consultations
Clinicians spend up to 40% of their working hours on documentation tasks. Heidi, a rapidly growing Australian-based global AI startup, is on a mission to protect and extend the human touch in healthcare. In just 18 months, Heidi has returned more than 18 million hours to frontline clinicians by streamlining critical administrative tasks.
Unlock Historical Archive Value with Multimodal AI
Digitization was supposed to solve the archive problem. Scan the pages, run Optical Character Recognition (OCR), enable keyword search—done. Yet decades and millions of dollars later, most newspaper archives remain essentially unusable for serious research.
Now Source Available: The Engine Powering MongoDB Search
Last year, we announced the public preview of search and vector search capabilities for use with MongoDB Community and MongoDB Enterprise Server. Today, we are releasing the engine that powers those capabilities, mongot, into public preview under the Server Side Public License (SSPL).
Semantic Power, Lexical Precision: Advanced Filtering for Vector Search
We are excited to announce the launch of Lexical Prefilters for MongoDB Vector Search, providing developers with a way to use advanced text and geo analysis filters alongside vector search. This new capability simplifies the challenge of building advanced applications by helping developers build richer and more sophisticated search experiences through the combination of semantic understanding and precise text filtering.
