MongoDB employs a serialization format called "BSON" to store documents. A combination of the words "Binary" and "JSON" (JavaScript Object Notation), you can think of BSON as a binary representation of JSON documents. Unfortunately, the BSON serialization format has a size limitation of 16 MB. While that leaves plenty of headroom for most data types, for some large binary formats, MongoDB employs a separate specification called GridFS for storing and retrieving files.
In today's blog, we'll be taking a look at how Navicat for MongoDB implements the GridFS spec to store large files.
The Navicat team is proud to announce the launch of Navicat Monitor 1.8. This minor update adds a couple of exciting features:
- The dashboard adds a compact view.
- Support for the Slack collaboration hub, so now you can get notifications via Slack whenever a warning or critical condition occurs in your infrastructure.
Today's blog examines both features and describes how to download the new version.
Navicat for MongoDB includes GUI Designers for both Users and Roles. We were introduced to the User Designer in the last blog. Today, we'll learn how to edit user roles using Navicat's Role Designer.
MongoDB provides a User Management Interface for performing a wide variety of user-related tasks. In addition to adding new users, the User Management Interface also allows database administrators (DBAs) to update existing users, such as to change password and grant or revoke roles. In today's blog, we'll explore how to create a new user using Navicat for MongoDB's User & Role Management facilities.
Sorting a list of English words is simple enough because they rely on alphabetical ordering. Sorting a set of German, or French words, with all of their accents, or Chinese with their different characters is a lot harder. Sorting rules are specified through locales, which determine how accents are sorted, in which order the characters are in, and how to do case-insensitive sorting.
