  What is MongoDB? NoSQLDocument Store MongoDB is a popular NoSQL database that bypasses traditional rigid SQL tables. It stores data in flexible, JSON- like document formats called BSON. Designed for rapid iteration and scalability in modern web development. Key Features Schema-less: Structure documents dynamically without fixed columns. Scalable: Supports high throughput via horizontal sharding. High Performance: Optimized for high-speed indexing and indexing capabilities. Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE

  MongoDB vs. MySQLComparison Feature MongoDB (NoSQL) MySQL (Relational SQL) Database Type Document-Oriented Database Relational Database Management System Data Storage JSON / BSON Documents Structured Tables with Rows & Columns Schema Structure Dynamic / Schema-less flexibility Strict pre-defined Schema required Relationships Embedded Documents & References Foreign Keys and SQL JOIN Queries Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE
• 5.
  How MongoDB StoresData Collections & Documents Instead of SQL tables, MongoDB organizes records into Collections containing JSON-formatted Documents. "_id" "64e1b3f7f5a123abc789" "name" "Alice" "email" "alice@example.com" "age" 25 Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE

  Deployment & SetupOptions Local Installation Download and run the MongoDB Community Edition on your local developer workstation for offline development and testing. MongoDB Atlas (Cloud) Fully managed cloud database hosting service. Creates automated clusters with automated connection strings. Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE

  Introduction to Mongoose SchemaModeling Defines rigid or semi-rigid structures and default properties for MongoDB documents in Node.js. Data Validation Enforces required values, field data types, data formats, and custom error handling before writing. Built-in Querying Provides powerful helper methods for seamless CRUD execution directly within Node.js code. Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE

  Mongoose Connection Connecting Node.jsto MongoDB Establish asynchronous connections safely using mongoose.connect(). Best Practice: Always hide database passwords inside a .env environment file. const async try await connect log "MongoDB Connected..." catch error exit 1 // Exit with failure Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE

  Schema vs. Modelin Mongoose Mongoose Schema The Blueprint of your document. Defines the structure, field data types, validation rules, default values, and methods for individual data records. Mongoose Model The Interface / Toolbox for database actions. A wrapper class created from a Schema that executes database CRUD operations on a target MongoDB collection. const new const model 'User' Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE
• 10.
  Defining Schema &Rules Type Declarations: Define strict JavaScript primitive types (e.g., String, Number, Boolean, Date). Required & Unique Options: Enforce mandatory fields and uniquely indexed data across collections. Enum Restraints: Restrict text input strictly to an array of approved string values. Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE

  Mongoose CRUD Operations Create Instantiatedocument and persist to database. Read Query documents matching criteria. Update Locate by ID and apply changes. const ne w await save const await find 'admin' await findByIdAndUpdate true Dr. N. JUBER RAHMAN, AP, SRCAS - CBE
