If you had invested $1,000 in MongoDB’s 2017 initial public offering, you’d be sitting on more than $16,800 today. That far outpaces the returns over the same period of each of the five most valuable pure-play software as a service firms—Adobe, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Shopify and Workday. It also beats the returns over that period of Microsoft and Apple, the world’s two most valuable companies.

Three years before MongoDB’s IPO, Dev Ittycheria joined the firm as CEO, and he has led the company since. Ittycheria is a former entrepreneur and venture capitalist. He co-founded BladeLogic, another enterprise software company, which went public in 2007 and which BMC Software later acquired for $900 million. Before coming to MongoDB, he was managing director at OpenView Venture Partners, and he was a venture partner at Greylock before that.
