CEO and president Dev Ittycheria called the results "another fantastic quarter," one that was "highlighted by 84% Atlas revenue growth and increasing our customer count to over 31,000."
Added Ittycheria, "We believe a key driver of our success has been the early, but growing, trend of customers choosing MongoDB as an enterprise standard for their future application development.
