Introduction to Schema

Considerations for NoSQL

This presentation will discuss schema considerations for NoSQL, specifically in


regard to relational schema design and MongoDB schema design. We will also
explore data types supported by MongoDB and the best practices for modeling
data for atomic operations.

String (String):

 Represents text data


Example: "John Doe"

Integer (NumberInt):
 Represents a 32-bit signed integer
Example: 42

Double (NumberDecimal):
 Represents a 64-bit floating-point number

Example: 3.14159

Boolean (Boolean):
 Represents true or false values
Example: true

Date (Date):
 Represents a date and time
Example: ISODate("2023-09-06T10:00:00Z")

Array (Array):
 Represents an ordered list of values
Example: ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
Object (Object):

 Represents a document or subdocument with key-value pairs

Null: Represents a null or missing value.

Example: "field1": null

Regular Expression: Used to store regular expressions.


Example: "pattern": /example/i

Binary Data (BinData): Stores binary data, such as images or files.

Example: "binaryData": BinData(0, "base64_encoded_data")

Decimal128: Represents arbitrary-precision decimal numbers.

Example: "price": NumberDecimal("19.99")

Symbol: Represents symbolic string data.

Example: "currency": Symbol("USD")

MinKey and MaxKey: Special values representing the smallest and largest possible BSON elements,
respectively.

db.collection.update({query}, db.collection.findAndModify({q
{update},{options}) - example: uery},{sort},{update},{options})

"appliances"},{$set:{quantity: db.products.findAndModify({qu
20}},{multi:true}) ery: {type: "tablet"}},{update:
{$inc: {stock: -1}}})

db.collection.remove({query},{options}) - example: db.orders.remove({status:


"cancelled"})
