MongoDB is a document-oriented, NoSQL database. It features easy sharding for high availability, a variety of index types ranging from geospatial to full-text, an expressive query language, and a JSON superset for serializing records. MongoDB is used by a variety of large companies in mission-critical roles, but is still easy to start with and develop against. Its flexibility and features make MongoDB a database that will grow with you, accommodating your requirements as your application develops. In this guide we will install MongoDB on an Ubuntu 14.04 server, giving you MongoDB’s reliability along with Ubuntu’s stability and long-term support.<\/p>\n
To complete this guide, you will need the following: When we’re done, MongoDB will be running and ready to integrate into your app or service.<\/p>\n Let’s get started. Begin by updating your packages and package cache. Not only does this prevent download errors later, but it also applies all available bugfixes and security patches. Perform this step regularly on this server to keep it secure and performant.<\/p>\n MongoDB is shipped in package repositories for a variety of distributions and versions. We’ll fetch the GPG key for their repositories so the packages can be verified on installation.<\/p>\n Now we’ll actually add the MongoDB repositories to your sources.list file so apt-get can retrieve the package list and install Mongo.<\/p>\n Having added the new repository, we’ll next need to update the list of packages.<\/p>\n Having done the update, we now install the MongoDB server and its command line tools.<\/p>\n In order for MongoDB to be launched on boot, we’ll need to create an init script.<\/p>\n First, create the file using the command:<\/p>\n The file should have the following content:<\/p>\n Now start MongoDB, and enable it to launch on boot.<\/p>\n MongoDB should now be running. Let’s check the status of the daemon.<\/p>\n Let’s also check Mongo’s stats as recorded in its internal system database.<\/p>\n MongoDB is now installed, running successfully, and configured to launch on boot. You can now integrate it into a local application, or build out several more servers using this guide and cluster them together into a highly-available database setup. If this guide was helpful to you, kindly share it with others who may also be interested. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MongoDB is a document-oriented, NoSQL database.

\n# Provides: mongodb
\n# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
\n# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
\n# Short-Description: Mongodb startup script
\n# Description: Mongodb start stop daemon sends SIGINT to terminate
\n# say man signal to see details
\n# Please check the startup params and replication options
\n#Mongo db usage:
\n# run run db
\n# msg [msg] [port] send a request to the db server listening on port (or default)
\n# msglots send many test messages, and then wait for answer on the last one
\n# longmsg send a long test message to the db server
\n# quicktest just check basic assertions and exit
\n# test2 run test2() - see code
\n#
\n#Options:
\n# --help show this usage information
\n# --port
\n# --dbpath
\n# --quiet quieter output
\n# --cpu show cpu+iowait utilization periodically
\n# --noauth run without security
\n# --auth run with security
\n# --verbose
\n# -v+ increase verbose level -v = --verbose
\n# --objcheck inspect client data for validity on receipt
\n# --quota enable db quota management
\n# --appsrvpath
\n# --nocursors diagnostic\/debugging option
\n# --nohints ignore query hints
\n# --nohttpinterface disable http interface
\n# --nojni
\n# --oplog
