What is MongoDB ?

Replication for redundancy and high availability, sharding for horizontal scaling, and other characteristics make MongoDB a popular general-purpose, document-oriented database.

The most recent versions of the MongoDB server can be downloaded as binary archives from mongodb.com or installed using standard packaging techniques.

A robust GUI for searching, aggregating, and visualising your MongoDB data is available from MongoDB and is called MongoDB Compass.
