Let Stefanie show you how to install a local copy of MongoDB and use it in Claris FileMaker with the MBS FileMaker Plugin.

We have a version in [English](https://www.mbsplugins.com/MongoDBen.shtml) and a version in [German](https://www.mbsplugins.com/MongoDBde.shtml).

Also -- MongoDB is so useful with and _without_ FileMaker especially for HUGE datasets. Been using it for a long time. Highly recommended non-SQL DB.
