 3.4 Themes

Mission-critical apps. Stronger security, broader platform support, and Zones

make MongoDB ready for the most demanding mission-critical deployments.

Multimodel done right. Other vendors sell you multiple products. MongoDB
gives you multiple models in one database: document, graph, key value, and
search with faceted navigation.

Modernized tooling. A sophisticated range of tools and integrations provide

powerful capabilities for Data Analysts, DBAs, and Operations teams.

Graph Processing

• Enables processing of graph & hierarchical data natively

within MongoDB with $graphLookup operator

• Recommendation engines, MDM, fraud models, social
networks, etc.
Faceted Navigation

• Grouping data into related categories for intuitive exploration

& discovery
• Used in search and analytics applications
• New aggregation pipeline stages for faceting, bucketing &
sorted counts across multiple dimensions
• Eliminates requirement for external search engine
Collations

• Extend global reach of apps with collations, which allow

proper text comparisons and sorting by applying language-
specific rules
• MongoDB 3.4 adds support for 100+ different languages &
locales throughout the query language and indexes
• Over 2x as many as offered by most RDBMS
Decimal Data Type

• Support for the IEEE 754-2008 decimal128 type in server and

drivers
• Enables correct storage, comparing and sorting of

Decimal128
decimal values
• Database stores exact values to eliminate rounding errors for
high-precision calculations, complex financial & scientific
apps
Advanced Analytics

New Stages Array String & Date

Operators Operators
• Powerful data processing pipeline for analytics &
$graphLookup $in $indexOfBytes
transformations
$facet $indexOfArray $indexOfCP
$bucket $range $split • 25+ enhancements simplify app code
$bucketAuto $reverseArray $strLenBytes
• Performance improvements with query optimizer moving
$sortbyCount $reduce $strLenCP
$addFields $zip $substrBytes $match stage earlier to use indexes
$replaceRoot $substrCP
$isoDayOfWeek
$isoWeek
$isoWeekYear
MongoDB Connector for BI

• Create powerful visualizations & analytics from SQL-based BI

tooling
• Auto-schema sampling
• Eliminates ETL
• Higher performance with re-written SQL layer
• More processing pushed down to the database
• Simplified installation and authentication
MongoDB Atlas: Hosted database service

● Automated: The easiest way to build, launch, and scale apps on

MongoDB

● Secured: VPC peering, SSL/TLS, encrypted storage volumes,

IP whitelists, authentication/authorization via SCRAM-SHA1, and
more

● Highly available: Deployments distributed across 3 AWS

availability zones

● High performance: WiredTiger storage engine for demanding

workloads

Improved Tunable Consistency

• maxStalenessMS
• Choose how and when to route queries to secondary replicas
• Only read from replicas that are within a defined consistency
window
• Improved data quality while scaling reads across secondaries
• readConcern “linearizable” for the strongest consistency
guarantees of any database
• Ensure that a node is the primary at the time of read
• Ensure that data returned will not be rolled back if another
node is subsequently elected as primary
Zones

• Partition data across distributed clusters based on data

locality policies
• Support distributed local writes
• Easily adhere to data sovereignty requirements
• Enable deployment patterns such as tiered storage
• Can be configured visually from MongoDB Ops Manager
LDAP Authorization

• LDAP authentication & authorization reduces administrative

overhead & TCO
• User privileges can be managed centrally in LDAP and
mapped to MongoDB roles without requiring duplication
• Native platform libraries to integrate with LDAP; no need
for external dependencies and configurations; adds
LDAP support for Windows
Read-Only Views

• MongoDB 3.4 allows administrators to define dynamically

generated views that expose a subset of data from the
underlying collection
• Reduces risk of sensitive data exposure
• Views do not affect source collections
• Separately specified permissions levels
• Allows organizations to more easily meet compliance
standards in regulated industries
Expanded Platform Support

• MongoDB 3.4 supports the growing demand to run the

database on a more diverse range of platforms
• ARM v8-64 bit support allows customers to take
advantage of power-efficient servers being deployed into
ultra dense data center racks
• IBM Power8 and zSeries support provides seamless
migration for enterprises modernizing legacy workloads.
Available for MongoDB Enterprise Server.
APM Integration

• Monitor MongoDB alongside the rest of your app

infrastructure by using our RESTful API
• Leverage packaged integrations with leading APM
platforms such as New Relic
Visual Query Profiler

• Identify the slow-running queries across your

cluster with just the click of a button
Index Suggestions

• Index suggestions to improve your query

performance
Automated Index Builds

• Automate rolling index builds to reduce operational

overhead and the risk of failovers
Server Pools

• Allocate and create pre-provisioned server pools

• Ops Manager agent installed to pool via
configuration management tools
• Server pools exposed to internal teams, ready for
provisioning into local groups
• Allow administrators to create true, on demand
database resources for private cloud environments
High Resolution Monitoring

• Finer grained telemetry data: collected every 10

seconds vs every 60 seconds
• Configurable retention policies
• Simplified & extended management
• Single agent to collect both database and
hardware telemetry
• Hardware metrics now collected for Windows &
OSX hosts
