warning

⚠️ If you choose Public IP, external access will be on the default MongoDB port 27017. Remember to create firewall rules to restrict access to the desired IPs.

📁 Accessing your MongoDB​

After creating your instance, you will receive access data by email:

  • Address: Host or Public IP
  • Port: 27017 (MongoDB default)
  • User: admin
  • Password: Automatically generated

🔐 Access via Web SSH​

mongo -u admin -p 'suaSenha' --authenticationDatabase admin

🔐 Remote access​

mongo --host IP_DO_SERVIDOR --port 27017 -u admin -p 'suaSenha' --authenticationDatabase admin

Or using the MongoDB interface, address sent by email

🗄️ Important Folder Structure​

/var/lib/mongo/             # Diretório dos dados persistentes
/etc/mongod.conf               # Arquivo principal de configuração
/var/log/mongodb/mongod.log    # Logs da instância MongoDB
tip

💡 Check the Backup Configuration Documentation to create a backup routine and ensure data persistence.

📈 Optimization and Performance​

  • Use appropriate indexes for your collections.
  • Monitor RAM, disk, and connection usage.
  • For heavy workloads, consider distributing data using Sharding.
  • Configure connection limits in the /etc/mongod.conf file.
  • Monitor with:
db.serverStatus()

or tools like PMM, Zabbix, and Grafana.

tip

💡 Check the Official MongoDB Performance Documentation for best tuning and scalability practices.
