Beware that mongodb adapter is in an experimental stage of development, so 
you should know what you are doing before migrating. I suppose there are 
lots of howtos for migrating data between those backends. The web2py way of 
doing has two options, AFAIK:

- use cpdb (never tried it with those connections)
- use DAL.import_from_csv_file and DAL.export_from_csv_file methods (for a 
small amount of db records)

Mind that the most important issue is that mongodb is not a relational 
database management system and there's no such thing as JOIN queries. This 
is a limitation for web2py also, since some of the web2py features require 
joins to work.
