Learn MongoDB 4.x

Learn MongoDB 4.x

By: Bierer

Overview of this book

When it comes to managing a high volume of unstructured and non-relational datasets, MongoDB is the defacto database management system (DBMS) for DBAs and data architects. This updated book includes the latest release and covers every feature in MongoDB 4.x, while helping you get hands-on with building a MongoDB database app. You’ll get to grips with MongoDB 4.x concepts such as indexes, database design, data modeling, authentication, and aggregation. As you progress, you’ll cover tasks such as performing routine operations when developing a dynamic database-driven website. Using examples, you’ll learn how to work with queries and regular database operations. The book will not only guide you through design and implementation, but also help you monitor operations to achieve optimal performance and secure your MongoDB database systems. You’ll also be introduced to advanced techniques such as aggregation, map-reduce, complex queries, and generating ad hoc financial reports on the fly. Later, the book shows you how to work with multiple collections as well as embedded arrays and documents, before finally exploring key topics such as replication, sharding, and security using practical examples. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-versed with MongoDB 4.x and be able to perform development and administrative tasks associated with this NoSQL database.

Customer collection document structure

Each collection features a unique identifying key that's based on an arbitrary algorithm. In this case, the customerKey field includes the first four letters of the first name, the first four letters of the last name, and a phone number. This gives us an alternative way to uniquely identify a customer over and above the autogenerated MongoDB ObjectId property.

In addition, we'll leverage the following previously defined subclasses: Name, Location, Contact, OtherContact, OtherInfo, and LoginInfo. In addition, totalBooked and discount are defined to support the loyalty program. Here is the final collection structure:

Customer = {
"customerKey" : <string>,
"name" : <Name>,
"address" : <Location>,
"contact" : <Contact>,
"otherContact" : <OtherContact>,
"otherInfo" : <OtherInfo>,
"login&quot...
