What is MongoDB?

MongoDB
is an open source database
that uses a
document-oriented
data model.

MongoDB Data Model

MongoDB uses a Json-like
representation of his data
(Bson)
Bson > Json
● custom types (Date, ObjectID...)
● faster
● lightweight

collections
documents
key-value pairs

MongoDB Data Model example (BLOG POST):
{
"_id": ObjectId("508d27069cc1ae293b36928d"),
"title": "This is the title",
"tags": [
"chocolate",
"milk"
],
"created_date": ISODate("2012-10-28T12:41:39.110Z"),
"author_id": ObjectId("508d280e9cc1ae293b36928e"),
"comments": [
{
"content": "This is the body of comment",
"author_id": ObjectId("508d34"),
"tag": "coffee"},
{
"content": "This is the body of comment",
"author_id": ObjectId("508d35")}
]
}

REFERENCING
vs
EMBEDDING

One to few
> db.employee.findOne()
{
name: 'Kate Monster',
ssn: '123-456-7890',
addresses:
[{ street: 'Lombard Street, 26',
zip_code: '22545'
},
{ street: 'Abbey Road, 99',
zip_code: '33568'
}]
}

Disadvantages:
- It’s really hard accessing the embedded
details as stand-alone entities
example:
“Show all addresses with a certain zip code”

Advantages:
- One query to get them all
- embedded + value object =

One to many
> db.parts.findOne()
{
_id: ObjectID('AAAAF17CD2AAAAAAF17CD2'),
partno: '123-aff-456',
name: '#4 grommet',
qty: 94,
cost: 0.94,
price: 3.99
}

One to many
> db.products.findOne()
{
name: 'smoke shifter',
manufacturer: 'Acme Corp',
catalog_number: 1234,
parts: [
ObjectID('AAAAF17CD2AAAAAAF17CD2AA'),
ObjectID('F17CD2AAAAAAF17CD2AAAAAA'),
ObjectID('D2AAAAAAF17CD2AAAAAAF17C'),
// etc
]
}

Disadvantages:
“find all parts that compose a product”
> product = db.products.findOne({
catalog_number: 1234
});
> product_parts = db.parts.find({
_id: { $in : product.parts }
} ).toArray() ;
DENORMALIZATION

Advantages:
- Easy to search and update an individual
referenced document (a single part)
- free N-to-N schema without join table
parts: [
ObjectID('AAAAF17CD2AAAAAAF17CD2AA'),
ObjectID('F17CD2AAAAAAF17CD2AAAAAA'),
ObjectID('D2AAAAAAF17CD2AAAAAAF17C')
]

One to squillions
(Logging)
- document limit size = 16M
- can be reached even if the referencing
array contains only the objectId field
(~ 1,300,000 references)

Parent Referencing
> db.hosts.findOne()
{
_id: ObjectID('AAAB'),
name: 'goofy.example.com',
ipaddr: '127.66.66.66'
}
> db.logmsg.findOne()
{
time: ISODate("2014-03-28T09:42:41.382Z"),
message: 'cpu is on fire!',
host: ObjectID('AAAB')
}

Disadvantages:
“find the most recent 5K messages for a host”
> host = db.hosts.findOne({
ipaddr : '127.66.66.66'
});
> last_5k_msg = db.logmsg.find({
host: host._id})
.sort({time : -1})
.limit(5000)
.toArray()
DENORMALIZATION

DENORMALIZATION
NORMALIZATION

To be denormalized
{
parts: [
ObjectID('AAAA'),
ObjectID('F17C'),
ObjectID('D2AA'),
// etc
]
}

Denormalized (partial + one side)
{
parts: [
{ id: ObjectID('AAAA'), name: 'part1'},
{ id: ObjectID('F17C'), name: 'part2'},
{ id: ObjectID('D2AA'), name: 'part3'},
// etc
]
}

Advantages:
- Easy query to get product part name

Disadvantages:
- Updates become more expensive
- Cannot assure atomic and isolated
updates
MongoDB
it’s not
A.C.I.D. compliant

MongoDB supports only
single document level
transaction

So, how can I have an
(almost)
ACID Mongo?

1. Two Phase Commit (A+C)
2. $isolate operator (I)
3. enable journaling (D)

Two Phase Commit (A+C)
If we make a multi-update, a
system failure between the 2
separate updates can bring to
unrecoverable inconsistency
Create a transaction document
tracking all the needed data

Two Phase Commit Example
Uses a bridge “transaction”
document for retrying/rollback
operations not completed due to a
system failure

TODO: transfer 100$ from A to B
Account A:
total: 1000,
on_going_transactions: [];
Account B:
total: 500,
on_going_transactions: [];

Transaction document
from: “A”,
to: “B”,
amount: 100,
status: “initial”,
datetime: New Date();

Step 1: Update the transaction
_id: “zzzz”
from: “A”,
to: “B”,
amount: 100,
status: “pending”,

Step 2: Update Account A
update total: -100;
push on_going_transactions:
{transaction where _id = “zzzz”}

Step 3: Update Account B
update total: +100;
push on_going_transactions:

_id: “zzzz”
from: “A”,
to: “B”,
amount: 100,
status: “applied”,

Step 5: Update Account A
pull on_going_transactions:

Step 6: Update Account B
pull on_going_transactions:

_id: “zzzz”
from: “A”,
to: “B”,
amount: 100,
status: “done”,

Two Phase Commit
This pattern emulates the
sql transaction
management, achieving
Atomicity + Consistency

$isolate operator (I)
“You can ensure that no client sees
the changes until the operation
completes or errors out.”
db.car.update(
{ color : "RED" , $isolated : 1 },
{ $inc : { count : 1 } },
{ multi: true }
)

Journaling (D)
Journaling is logging all writes
(every 100ms) for recovering
purpose in case of system failure
(crash)
If a clean shutdown is
accomplished, journal files are
erased

Aggregation Framework
(finally)
def: “Aggregations are
operations that process data
records and return
computed results.”

1) C.R.U.D.
2) single purpose
aggregation operators
3) pipeline
4) map reduce

CRUD Operators:
- insert()
- find() / findOne()
- update()
- remove()

SPAO
a) count
b) distinct
c) group

count
{ a: 1, b: 0 }
{ a: 1, b: 1 }
{ a: 1, b: 4 }
{ a: 2, b: 2 }
db.records.count( { a: 1 } ) = 3

distinct
{ name: "jim", age: 0 }
{ name: "kim", age: 1 }
{ name: "dim", age: 4 }
{ name: "sim", age: 2 }
db.foe.distinct("age")=[0, 1, 4, 2]

group
{ age: 12, count: 4 }
{ age: 12, count: 2 }
{ age: 14, count: 3 }
{ age: 14, count: 4 }
{ age: 16, count: 6 }
{ age: 18, count: 8 }

group
db.records.group({
key: { age: 1 },
cond: { age: { $lt: 16 } },
reduce:
function(cur,result)
{ result.count += cur.count },
initial: { count: 0 }
})

group
[
{ age: 12, count: 6 },
{ age: 14, count: 7 }
]

Pipeline
“Documents enter a multi-
stage pipeline that
transforms the documents
into an aggregated results”

Pipeline
initial_doc $group
result1 $match
... ... ...
... ... ...
resultN $project
final

Pipeline Example
> db.logs.findOne()
{
_id: ObjectId('a23ad345frt4'),
os: 'android',
token_id: 'ds2f43s4df',
at: ISODate("2012-10-28T12:41:39.110Z"),
event: “something just happened”,
}
“We need logs to be grouped by os, and
count how many in a single day
interval, sort by time”

Pipeline Example
Expected result:
os: 'android',
date: {
'year': 2012,
'month': 10
'day': 28
},
count: 125

Pipeline Example
$collection->aggregate(
array(
array('$project' => array(
'os' => 1,
'days' => array(
'year' => array('$year' => '$at'),
'month' => array('$month' => '$at'),
'day' => array('$dayOfMonth' => '$at')
)
)),
...

Pipeline Example
...
array(
'$group' => array(
'_id' => array(
'os' => '$os',
'date' => '$days',
),
'count' => array('$sum' => 1)
)
)
),
...

Pipeline Example
...
array(
'$sort' => array(
'_id.date' => 1
)
)
)
);

Pipeline Optimization
…
{ $limit: 100 },
{ $skip: 5 },
{ $limit: 10 },
{ $skip: 2 }
...

…
{ $limit: 100 },
{ $limit: 15 },
{ $skip: 5 },
{ $skip: 2 }
...

…
{ $limit: 15 },
{ $skip: 7 }
...

Map Reduce
“Map reduce is a data
processing paradigm for
condensing large volumes of
data into useful aggregated
results”

Map Reduce Example
> db.orders.find()
{ sku: “01A”, qty: 8, total: 88 },
{ sku: “01A”, qty: 7, total: 79 },
{ sku: “02B”, qty: 9, total: 27 },
{ sku: “03C”, qty: 8, total: 24 },
{ sku: “03C”, qty: 3, total: 12 }

Map Reduce Example
“Calculate the avg price we sell
our products, grouped by sku
code, with total quantity and
total income, starting from
1/1/2015”

Map Reduce Example
db.orders.mapReduce(
mapFunction,
reduceFunction,
{
out: { merge: "reduced_orders" },
query: {
date:{ $gt: new Date('01/01/2015') }
},
finalize: finalizeFunction
}

Map Reduce Example
var mapFunction =
function() {
var key = this.sku;
var value = {
tot: this.total
qty: this.qty
};
emit(key, value);
}
Result:
{ 01A: [{tot: 88, qty: 8}, {tot: 79, qty: 7}] },
{ 02B: {tot: 27, qty: 9} },
{ 03C: [{tot: 24, qty: 8}, {tot: 12, qty: 3}] }

Map Reduce Example
var reduceFunction =
reducedVal = { qty: 0, tot: 0}
function(key, values) {
for(var i, i < values.length, i++) {
reducedVal.qty += values[i].qty
reducedVal.tot += values[i].tot
};
return reducedVal;

Map Reduce Example
Result:
{ 01A: {tot: 167, qty: 15} },
{ 02B: {tot: 27, qty: 9} },
{ 03C: {tot: 36, qty: 11} }

Map Reduce Example
var finalizeFunction =
function(key, reducedVal) {
reducedVal.avg =
reducedVal.tot/reducedVal.qty;
return reducedVal;
};

Map Reduce Example
Result:
{01A: {tot: 167, qty: 15, avg: 11.13} },
{02B: {tot: 27, qty: 9, avg: 3} },
{03C: {tot: 36, qty: 11, avg: 3.27} }

Map Reduce Example
> db.reduced_orders.find()
{01A: {tot: 167, qty: 15, avg: 11.13} },
{02B: {tot: 27, qty: 9, avg: 3} },
{03C: {tot: 36, qty: 11, avg: 3.27} }
