mongodb
Scripts for setting up, configuring, securing, running, and monitoring MongoDB.
Running on Debian-based server.
Setting up
installation page of documentation
sudo apt-get remove mongodb mongodb-server
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 2930ADAE8CAF5059EE73BB4B58712A2291FA4AD5
echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/3.6 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.6.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
Configuring
configuration covers MongoDB config files, important options, setting port and address to bind to.
27017 - default port for mongo
see config.md
Security
use a management (virtual) LAN to communicate. mongodb assumes the network is insecure, so keep things locked down at the network level, not at the mongodb level.
see security.md
Running
mongodb installation instructions tell you how to run it. ubuntu installation instructions: running
basically, run:
sudo service mongod start
basic usage includes CRUD operations.
see running.md
Monitoring
We refer to monitoring in two senses:
- Monitoring the status of MongoDB using a logging tool
- Using MongoDB to store monitoring data
see monitoring.md
Grease the Skids
We want to make it as easy as possible to set up monitoring and instrumentation for new stuff.
So, make it easy to monitor new things.
