Overview of this book

MongoDB is a leading non-relational database. This book covers all the major features of MongoDB including the latest version 6. MongoDB 6.x adds many new features and expands on existing ones such as aggregation, indexing, replication, sharding and MongoDB Atlas tools. Some of the MongoDB Atlas tools that you will master include Atlas dedicated clusters and Serverless, Atlas Search, Charts, Realm Application Services/Sync, Compass, Cloud Manager and Data Lake. By getting hands-on working with code using realistic use cases, you will master the art of modeling, shaping and querying your data and become the MongoDB oracle for the business. You will focus on broadly used and niche areas such as optimizing queries, configuring large-scale clusters, configuring your cluster for high performance and availability and many more. Later, you will become proficient in auditing, monitoring, and securing your clusters using a structured and organized approach. By the end of this book, you will have grasped all the practical understanding needed to design, develop, administer and scale MongoDB-based database applications both on premises and on the cloud.

MongoDB for SQL developers

MongoDB was developed in the Web 2.0 era. By then, most developers were using SQL or object-relational mapping (ORM) tools from their language of choice to access RDBMS data. As such, these developers needed an easy way to get acquainted with MongoDB from their relational background.

Thankfully, there have been several attempts at making SQL-to-MongoDB cheat sheets that explain the MongoDB terminology in SQL terms.

On a higher level, we have the following:

  • Databases and indexes (SQL databases)
  • Collections (SQL tables)
  • Documents (SQL rows)
  • Fields (SQL columns)
  • Embedded and linked documents (SQL joins)

Further examples of common operations in SQL and their equivalents in MongoDB are shown in the following table:

Table 1.1 – Common operations in SQL/MongoDB

Table 1.1 – Common operations in SQL/MongoDB

A few more examples of common operations can be seen at https://s3.amazonaws.com/info-mongodb-com/sql_to_mongo.pdf.

Next, we will check out the features that MongoDB has brought for NoSQL developers.
