MongoDB also offers a security layer with user authentication where one 
can grant access (read/write) on database level. The authentication 
credentials have to be provided by the application accessing the 
database. I actually don't see a difference to MySQL or other SQL-based 
databases here.

Yes, the tremendous amount of disk space used for storing data indeed is 
a major drawback.

In that case we also have a problem when using MySQL or even worse sqlite.
