Is your application slowing down as your database grows? 🐢 Don't just throw more hardware at the problem! The secret to high-performance MongoDB apps is efficient indexing. In this essential 2025 guide, we’ll show you how to use indexes to transform slow "Collection Scans" into lightning-fast "Index Scans."
This tutorial is perfect for developers and DBAs who want to master query optimization. We'll move past basic createIndex commands and dive into the professional strategies used to scale massive databases. 🚀
What you will learn in this video:
The ESR Rule (Equality, Sort, Range): The golden rule of MongoDB indexing! We'll explain why the order of fields in a compound index is the difference between a fast query and a slow one. 📏
Using explain() to Audit Performance: Learn how to read an execution plan.
COLLSCAN vs. IXSCAN: Why you always want to avoid the dreaded collection scan.
Keys Examined vs. Docs Returned: How to spot an "inefficient" index. 🔍
Covered Queries: The "Holy Grail" of performance! Learn how to return results directly from the index without ever touching the actual documents. 📄✨
Improving Query Selectivity: Why indexing a field with only two values (like "gender") might be a waste of time and how to pick "high-cardinality" fields instead.
Managing Index Overhead: Every index speeds up reads but slows down writes. We'll show you how to find and drop unused or redundant indexes to keep your database lean. 🧹
