MongoDB is highly tuneable with many options for optimizing performance. However, the sheer quantity of tuning options can be overwhelming, and you can waste precious time unless you know which tuning activities are most likely to provide a return on your time investment.
In this presentation, we’ll review ten of the fundamental MongoDB performance tuning practices and see how to use these in a systematic way to improve MongoDB performance.
Topics will include document design, workload and query optimization, use and misuse of transactions, configuring memory to avoid physical IO, disk IO optimization, and MongoDB cluster optimization.
The following subjects will be covered:
• Adopting a methodical tuning methodology
• MongoDB schema design
• MongoDB indexing
• Tuning tools included in the MongoDB core
• Tips for optimizing find() and aggregate() statements
• Tuning update, inserts and deletes
• Transaction performance management
• Memory Tuning
• Disk tuning
• Replica set tuning
