MongoDB 1.6 stable release released

Almost on time, the 10gen team released a new stable release of the MongoDB NoSQL database.

From the novelties I want to note such declared possibilities:

* Auto sharding - now you can create clusters for a large amount of data with the "spreading" of data on the cluster servers
* Replica Sets - allows you to create clusters with fast replication and fault tolerance
* $ Or operator - if you had to write a query using JavaScript before, now OR operations work as a standard query
* Up to 64 indexes per collection
* The $ slice operator is a very handy thing, you can choose the first 5 pieces of records or the last 5 pieces, for example.
* UNIX socket and IPv6 support
* Improved service support for Windows

You can download it on the download page.
