Preface

MongoDB is the 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.

Learning from experience and demonstrating 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 dive deep into broadly used as well as niche areas such as optimizing queries, configuring large-scale clusters, configuring your cluster for high performance and availability, and many more. With this under your belt, you will be proficient in auditing, monitoring, and securing your clusters using a structured and organized approach.

By the end of the book, you will have grasped all the practical understanding needed to design, develop, administer and scale MongoDB-based database applications both on-premises and in the cloud.
