 The primary goal of the https://spring.io/projects/spring-data[Spring Data] project is to make it easier to build Spring-powered applications that use new data access technologies such as non-relational databases, map-reduce frameworks, and cloud based data services.
 
-The Spring Data MongoDB project aims to provide a familiar and consistent Spring-based programming model for new datastores while retaining store-specific features and capabilities.
+The Spring Data project aims to provide a familiar and consistent Spring-based programming model for new datastores while retaining store-specific features and capabilities.
 The Spring Data MongoDB project provides integration with the MongoDB document database.
 Key functional areas of Spring Data MongoDB are a POJO centric model for interacting with a MongoDB `+Document+` and easily writing a repository style data access layer.
