What is MongoDB?

• MongoDB is a NoSQL store - NoSQL revolution happened to solve the many issues faced with storing web-scale data in relational databases

• It doesn't use SQL to store and retrieve data

• Widely adopted in web applications these days

• No clear winner and therefore difficult to choose among alternatives

Key Features - MongoDB

• The document data model

• Ad-hoc queries

• Secondary indexes

• Replication

• Speed & Durability

• Scaling

MongoDB Concepts Database • A single MongoDB server can have many databases

Collections • Collections are a group of Documents (sort of like RDBMS tables)

Documents • A record in a MongoDB collection with a maximum size of 16MB

Fields • One name-value pair in a document & is analogous to columns in a relational

database

Replication

• Fail-over

• Maintenance

• Load Balancing

Replication Setups

• Master/Slave Replication

• Replica Set Setup

• Arbiter

• Finding status via rs.status() on Primary

• Fail-over

Replication – Oplogs and Heartbeat

• Oplog

– Capped Collections that is present in a database called local on every replicating node

– Location: Database: local, Collection: oplog.rs

– Changing the oplog size (via mongod config)

• Heartbeat

– A 2-second ping with other members that helps the replica set determine if a node has gone down

Authentication

• Adding individual users

• Starting the server with auth enabled

• Using authentication

• Replica sets and authentication

Sharding

• Idea of sharding

• How is sharding different from replication?

• The different servers involved – Shards

– Routers

– Config Servers

• Sharding without replication

• Sharding with replication

• Sharding with security enabled

• Bad shard keys

• Choosing ideal shard keys
