what's the scrappy open source alternative nosql db that actually needs users/support/tutorials now that mongodb has gone IPO? cnbc.com/2017/10/19/mongodb-md (to be clear, I like mongodb and have friends that work there and would continue to suggest it to clients, but I'd rather spend my own time supporting smaller, more radical, less cash-rich projects)

Orientdb - privately held, but Java
ArangoDB - C++ but VC-backed (no IPO yet)
Dgraph - new, interesting, lacks sufficient docs
Tidb - NoSql but speaks MySql wire protocol so you can use most mysql/maria clients and get NoSql too
Redis - you probably know about aleeady

Not really scrappy things, there's scrappier ones, but thesenwork pretty well already
