Learn how to install, configure, secure, monitor, and maintain MongoDB environments. This two-day course provides administrators with an overview of MongoDB architecture, deployment options, replication, backup and recovery, performance management, and horizontal scaling. Participants learn how to manage reliable MongoDB deployments, implement access controls, configure replica sets, monitor database activity, plan backups, and understand when and how to use sharding.
You will learn how to administer MongoDB environments throughout their operational lifecycle. You will explore installation and configuration, security, replication, backup and recovery, monitoring, performance optimisation, sharding, and routine maintenance.
