Hardware virtualization for cloud computing has come a long way, improving performance using technologies such as VT-x, SR-IOV, VT-d, NVMe, and APICv.

MongoDB is a non-relational document database that provides support for JSON-like storage. First released in 2009, it is the most used NoSQL database and has been downloaded more than 325 million times. The bigger the database, the bigger the damage from a leak. This can leave your database instances exposed and vulnerable.
