Information

MongoDB is a flexible database that allows you to process large amounts of structured and unstructured data. It uses a flexible document model which enables you to easily change the data structure. MongoDB offers a simple query language, index support, and horizontal scalability. One of the key features of MongoDB is its flexible document model. Instead of using tables and rows, data in MongoDB is organized into BSON (Binary JSON) documents, which can be represented as complex hierarchies and contain various types of fields, including numbers, strings, arrays, and even sub-documents.

MongoDB. Key Features¶

Flexible data model: MongoDB uses a flexible JSON document structure called BSON (Binary JSON). This feature allows you to store different types of data and change the document schema without having to perform a database migration.
Scalability: The ability of data distribution and queries to multiple servers. It allows you to process large amounts of data and increase system transmission capacity if necessary.
Replication: The built-in replication feature allows you to create multiple replicas of the database. It provides fault tolerance and increases data availability. If one server fails, data can be obtained from other replicas.
Sharding: It allows you to horizontally divide data into several fragments and store them on different servers. This ensures even distribution of the load and allows you to work efficiently with large amounts of data.
Index support: MongoDB provides various types of indexes to speed up the execution of requests. Indexes can be created in one or more fields of a document. They allow you to quickly find data, reducing system response time.
Query Language: MongoDB uses a JSON-based query language that supports filtering, sorting, aggregation, and other functions to process data.
Transaction support: New versions of MongoDB introduced transaction support. It allows you to perform a group of operations within a single transaction. Transactions provide data consistency and guarantee the integrity of the database during simultaneous access by multiple clients.

Deployment Features¶

Installation on AlmaLinux 8/9, RockyLinux 8/9, Debian 11, Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 families is possible.
Installation time is 15-20 minutes, including OS.

The MongoDB installation process includes several stages: - Installation of the system; - Adding repositories and GPG keys; - Installing the MongoDB package from the repository; - Running and enabling autorun of the MongoDB service.

Getting started after deploying MongoDB¶

A notification will be sent to the e-mail specified during registration that the server is ready for work after paying for the order. It will contain the IP address of the VPS, as well as the login and password for the connection. Clients of our company manage the hardware in the server`s and API control panel - Invapi.

Note

For more information on the basic settings of MongoDB, see the documentation of the developers.
