The document discusses X.commerce, an eBay commerce platform that uses MongoDB as its data store. It provides a complete commerce ecosystem and single entry point for merchants. MongoDB was chosen because it supports the flexible and scalable data needs of X.commerce, is reliable and manageable, and integrates well with other services like Cloud Foundry. MongoDB has become a core component of X.commerce and is used to store authorization, configuration, and message tracing data.
