Beyond Casbah
We have only considered Casbah in this chapter. There are, however, other drivers for MongoDB.
ReactiveMongo is a driver that focusses on asynchronous read and writes to and from the database. All queries return a future, forcing asynchronous behavior. This fits in well with data streams or web applications.
Salat sits at a higher level than Casbah and aims to provide easy serialization and deserialization of case classes.
A full list of drivers is available at https://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/drivers/scala/.
