Does anyone know of an open source PAAS that would run on top of
MongoDB?

Thanks!

Hi,

Not sure exactly what you mean by open source PAAS, but here are some:

For Ruby/Rails, Heroku and EngineYard are hosted platforms that work well with MongoDB (and you can run Rails independently with MongoDB and host yourself)
For C#/.NET, you can use Microsoft Azure (or again, use IIS/ASP and host yourself)

And MongoDB works well with most open source application frameworks.
e.g. Spring and JBoss for Java, Django and a whole host of others for Python, etc

If you have other questions, feel free to ask on the list, or drop me an email.

There is no such thing afaik; what you mean is some entity/platform you
can "click yourself together" possibly using a webgui. For example, if
you wanted to create some billing system you can parametrize (all TTW
(Through-The-Web)) without having to rack your own hardware or write you
application logic.

Finally, you would, again, by using TTW clicking, give appearance to
that "thing" (CSS, JavaScript, HTML).

No, there is no such thing yet, at least not that I know of ... sounds
like a reasonable product though ...

It is true that MongoDB integrates nicely with frameworks such as Django
or that you can use Amazon EC2 but that has nothing to do with PaaS
since the latter is a different animal altogether.
