Perhaps, but wouldn't it make sense to compare them to another software infrastructure company, rather than social networks?

I am not comparing them but simply predicting the fate based on overblown expectations that were similar to Twitter and SnapChat.

I think it's easy to equate, because in our bubble we hear so much Mongo hype, but to the much larger world, they know as much about Mongo as they do Firebase or New Relic. Also, Mongo the technology has a different set of expectations than Mongo the publicly traded company.
