In-Depth Information
Summary
In this chapter, we introduced management and administration tools. Using these tools, you
can ease the management process.
First of all, you learned all the major methods of managing a MongoDB instance, including
profiling, using database logs, utilizing built-in management tools, and using web-based
utilities to manage an instance.
Then, you learned how to work with the profiler in a database to diagnose and find slow
operations. Then, you worked with built-in reporting tools such as mongotop or mon-
gostat . These tools are easy to use and handy to monitor instance statistics.
Also, you studied how to use and execute database commands to get reports from active
databases or collections. These commands are dbStats , collStats , and so on. Then,
you learned how to use and read database logs to find issues in the running instances and
diagnose it.
Moreover, you studied some web-based tools that are useful to easily manage a MongoDB
instance remotely. You can now define your alerts or create a custom dashboard to watch
available instances better.
Next, you introduced a list of open source tools. You can download and install the tools in
this section on your machine and monitor your database instances. Most of them provide a
good overview of instance statistics.
