This may be strange, but is it possible to upload mongodb application files to my ASP.NET MVC host and use them in only my website without any setup and installation?

[updated]

I'm not a administrator on host. I'm just a normal user with privileges of uploading my ASP.NET MVC project files using file manager.

If it's possible so how? ;)

Reset to default

In addition to uploading the files you will also have to install a MongoDB instance to connect to. If you are not an administrator you will unlikely have the necessary privileges to start the MongoDB process which will listen on the default port 27017.

Is it possible to use it like SqlCompactEdition? Do you know any NoSql database without installation requirement?
@Jalal Amini, embedded databases such as SqlCompactEdition are intended to be run on client applications such as mobile devices, desktop applications, during development and unit testing but not in production environments of web applications which might require high scalability. In those environments it is recommended to use databases which are specifically designed for this purpose.
@Jalal Amini, Windows has a built in embedded database called ESENT which is used by RavenDB. It has a managed wrapper available. Most NoSQL databases that I know require a service to run and listen on a TCP port. You can specify this port, so you could probably ask the administrators run such database. For example RavenDB could be hosted as a Windows Service.
