MongoDB is a Document Database

MongoDBRich Queries

• Find Paul’s cars

• Find everybody in London with a car

built between 1970 and 1980

Geospatial• Find all of the car owners within 5km of

Trafalgar Sq.

Text Search• Find all the cars described as having

leather seats

Aggregation• Calculate the average value of Paul’s

car collection

Map Reduce

• What is the ownership pattern of colors

by geography over time? (is purple

trending up in China?)
