This will serve as a small memento of  M201 MongoDB Performance.

Lesson highlights for day I

As memory operations are much stronger than I/O operations, MongoDB heavily depend on memory especially for;

  • aggregation
  • index traversing
  • writes (first performed in memory)
  • query engine
  • connections  (1MB for connection)

CPU power will be needed for;

  • storage engine (wire tiger)
  • concurrency model of use (by default all cpu cores are used)
  • page compression
  • data calculation
  • aggregation framework
  • map reduce

Recommended RAID architecture for MongoDB is Raid10.

Applications connect to MongoS which connects config servers and shards.

Applications should choose wisely;

  • read concern
  • write concern
  • read preference

Lab setup

Here I will leash my mongo instance with vagrant and puppet. My sample configuration will be;

vagrantfile (Vagrantfile)

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
 # The most common configuration options are documented and commented below.
 # For a complete reference, please see the online documentation at
 # https://docs.vagrantup.com.

# Every Vagrant development environment requires a box. 
 config.vm.box = "debian81"

# Create a private network, which allows host-only access to the machine
 # using a specific IP.
 config.vm.hostname = "mongodb"
 config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.10.200"

# Provider-specific configuration so you can fine-tune various
 # backing providers for Vagrant. 
 config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
 vb.memory = 2048
 vb.cpus = 1
 end

# Enable provisioning with a shell script. Additional provisioners such as
 # Puppet, Chef, Ansible, Salt, and Docker are also available. 
 config.vm.provision :puppet do |puppet|
 puppet.module_path = "puppet/modules"
 puppet.manifests_path = "puppet/manifests"
 puppet.options = ['--verbose']
 end
 
 config.ssh.private_key_path = ['~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key', '~/.ssh/id_rsa', '.vagrant\machines\default\virtualbox\private_key']
 config.ssh.forward_agent = true
 
 
end

puppet manifest (puppet\manifests\default.pp)

# set path for executables
Exec { path => [ "/bin/", "/sbin/" , "/usr/bin/", "/usr/sbin/" ] }

# list packages that should be installed
$system_packages = ['vim', 'git', 'gpp', 'make',]

# perform an apt-get update
exec { 'update':
 command => 'apt-get update',
 require => Exec['mongodb_source_add']
}

# install system packages after an update
package { $system_packages:
 ensure => "installed",
 require => Exec['update']
}

# Import the public key used by the package management system
# sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 0C49F3730359A14518585931BC711F9BA15703C6
exec { 'mongodb_key_get':
 command => 'apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 0C49F3730359A14518585931BC711F9BA15703C6'
}

# Create a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-enterprise.list file for MongoDB.
# echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.com/apt/debian jessie/mongodb-enterprise/3.4 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-enterprise.list
exec { 'mongodb_source_add':
 command => 'echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.com/apt/debian jessie/mongodb-enterprise/3.4 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-enterprise.list',
 require => Exec['mongodb_key_get']
}

# Install the MongoDB Enterprise packages
package { mongodb-enterprise:
 ensure => "installed",
 install_options => ['-y'],
 require => Exec['update']
}

Lab for day I

Lab requires performing a simple query on an imported json dbase. I followed the steps;

get people.json with wget

wget https://university.mongodb.com/static/MongoDB_2017_M201_February/handouts/people.a74d7de502b1.json

mongodb201-starting-mongo

start mongod

Start mongod instance, and check contents of log file through tail

sudo service mongod start

Then we may perform queries on db’s as we wish

mongodb201-mongoimport
