MongoDB

Administer, optimize, and secure MongoDB NoSQL databases in development and production environments.

When to Use

• You need a document-oriented database with flexible schemas.
• Your data is semi-structured or heavily nested (JSON-like documents).
• You need horizontal scaling through sharding.
• Your application benefits from rich querying and aggregation pipelines.

Prerequisites

• Linux server (Debian/Ubuntu or RHEL-based) or Docker.
• Root or sudo access for package installation.
• Select a MongoDB release with verified current support and tool/OS compatibility; 6.x/7.x examples below are historical baselines.

Scope and data safety

Use packages/repository codename matching the host OS and verify signing-key fingerprints independently. Bootstrap users only on a local/private isolated listener; restrict bindIp to the required private addresses, enable TLS and never expose unauthenticated initialization. Passwords/URIs below are placeholders: use prompts or protected tool configuration rather than real secrets in process arguments or committed Compose. The Compose lab runs all members on one host, requires correct keyfile ownership inside containers and resolvable advertised member names; the host connection URL alone does not make mongo1/2/3 resolvable externally. Dumps need a consistency strategy for concurrent writes; --drop overwrites collections and needs a tested restore into isolation. TTL indexes delete data asynchronously. Profiler/diagnostic output can contain personal records; restrict access and redact. Server options and support status must be checked for the chosen version.

Installation and Setup

# Debian / Ubuntu — MongoDB 7
curl -fsSL https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-7.0.asc | \
  sudo gpg -o /usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-7.0.gpg --dearmor
echo "deb [ signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-7.0.gpg ] \
  https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu jammy/mongodb-org/7.0 multiverse" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-7.0.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y mongodb-org

# Start and enable
sudo systemctl enable --now mongod

# Verify
mongosh --eval "db.version()"

Initial User Setup

// Connect without auth first
// mongosh

use admin

// Create admin user
db.createUser({
  user: "admin",
  pwd: "strong_admin_password",
  roles: [
    { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" },
    { role: "readWriteAnyDatabase", db: "admin" },
    { role: "clusterAdmin", db: "admin" }
  ]
})

// Create an application-scoped user
use mydb
db.createUser({
  user: "myapp",
  pwd: "strong_app_password",
  roles: [{ role: "readWrite", db: "mydb" }]
})

Enable authentication in /etc/mongod.conf:

security:
  authorization: enabled

sudo systemctl restart mongod
# Now connect with credentials
mongosh -u myapp -p strong_app_password --authenticationDatabase mydb

mongosh Commands Reference

// Show databases and collections
show dbs
use mydb
show collections

// Insert documents
db.users.insertOne({ name: "Alice", email: "[email protected]", age: 30 })
db.users.insertMany([
  { name: "Bob", email: "[email protected]", age: 25 },
  { name: "Carol", email: "[email protected]", age: 35 }
])

// Query documents
db.users.find({ age: { $gte: 25 } }).sort({ name: 1 }).limit(10)
db.users.findOne({ email: "[email protected]" })
db.users.countDocuments({ age: { $gte: 30 } })

// Update
db.users.updateOne(
  { email: "[email protected]" },
  { $set: { age: 31 }, $currentDate: { updatedAt: true } }
)
db.users.updateMany(
  { age: { $lt: 30 } },
  { $set: { tier: "junior" } }
)

// Delete
db.users.deleteOne({ email: "[email protected]" })
db.users.deleteMany({ tier: "junior" })

Indexing

// Single-field index
db.users.createIndex({ email: 1 }, { unique: true })

// Compound index
db.orders.createIndex({ userId: 1, createdAt: -1 })

// Text index for search
db.articles.createIndex({ title: "text", body: "text" })
db.articles.find({ $text: { $search: "mongodb scaling" } })

// TTL index — auto-delete documents after 30 days
db.sessions.createIndex({ createdAt: 1 }, { expireAfterSeconds: 2592000 })

// List indexes
db.users.getIndexes()

// Drop an index
db.users.dropIndex("email_1")

// Explain a query to verify index usage
db.orders.find({ userId: 42 }).explain("executionStats")

Aggregation Pipeline Examples

// Revenue per status
db.orders.aggregate([
  { $group: {
      _id: "$status",
      totalRevenue: { $sum: "$total" },
      count: { $sum: 1 }
  }},
  { $sort: { totalRevenue: -1 } }
])

// Top 5 customers by order value (with a join)
db.orders.aggregate([
  { $group: {
      _id: "$userId",
      spent: { $sum: "$total" },
      orderCount: { $sum: 1 }
  }},
  { $sort: { spent: -1 } },
  { $limit: 5 },
  { $lookup: {
      from: "users",
      localField: "_id",
      foreignField: "_id",
      as: "user"
  }},
  { $unwind: "$user" },
  { $project: {
      _id: 0,
      name: "$user.name",
      email: "$user.email",
      spent: 1,
      orderCount: 1
  }}
])

// Daily signup trend
db.users.aggregate([
  { $group: {
      _id: { $dateToString: { format: "%Y-%m-%d", date: "$createdAt" } },
      signups: { $sum: 1 }
  }},
  { $sort: { _id: 1 } },
  { $limit: 30 }
])

Replica Set Setup

A single-member replica set is possible for development; production availability generally needs three appropriately distributed voting data-bearing members. An arbiter holds no data and is not an equivalent redundant copy.

Configuration File for Each Member

# /etc/mongod.conf (adjust port and dbPath per member)
storage:
  dbPath: /var/lib/mongodb
net:
  port: 27017
  bindIp: 0.0.0.0
replication:
  replSetName: rs0
security:
  authorization: enabled
  keyFile: /etc/mongodb-keyfile

# Generate a shared keyfile for internal auth
openssl rand -base64 756 > /etc/mongodb-keyfile
chmod 400 /etc/mongodb-keyfile
chown mongodb:mongodb /etc/mongodb-keyfile
# Copy this file to all replica set members

Initialize the Replica Set

// Connect to the first member
// mongosh --port 27017

rs.initiate({
  _id: "rs0",
  members: [
    { _id: 0, host: "mongo1:27017", priority: 2 },
    { _id: 1, host: "mongo2:27017", priority: 1 },
    { _id: 2, host: "mongo3:27017", priority: 1 }
  ]
})

// Check status
rs.status()

// View replication lag per member
rs.printReplicationInfo()
rs.printSecondaryReplicationInfo()

Backup and Restore

# Full dump of all databases
mongodump --uri="mongodb://admin:secret@localhost:27017" --out=/backups/full_$(date +%F)

# Single database
mongodump --uri="mongodb://myapp:secret@localhost:27017/mydb" --out=/backups/mydb_$(date +%F)

# Compressed dump
mongodump --uri="mongodb://admin:secret@localhost:27017" --gzip --out=/backups/gz_$(date +%F)

# Restore all databases
mongorestore --uri="mongodb://admin:secret@localhost:27017" /backups/full_2025-01-15/

# Restore a single database, dropping existing data first
mongorestore --uri="mongodb://admin:secret@localhost:27017" \
  --drop --db mydb /backups/mydb_2025-01-15/mydb/

# Restore compressed dump
mongorestore --uri="mongodb://admin:secret@localhost:27017" --gzip /backups/gz_2025-01-15/
