In this section, you are given an overview of what is needed to install MongoDB on a server running Linux, Windows, or macOS, located at a customer site. Later, in another section, you are shown how to create a virtual test environment in which you can practice the techniques discussed in this book. Before you can start on the installation, however, it is important to review which version of MongoDB is desired, as well as host computer hardware requirements.
A good overview of MongoDB installation can be found here: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/administration/install-community/#install-mongodb-community-edition.
