MongoDB

Overview

MongoDB is an open-source NoSQL database that uses a document-oriented database model to make it easier to split data across multiple servers for increased security and productivity.

The MongoDB Check collects metrics from your MongoDB instances. Circonus pulls information from MongoDB in JSON format via the database's native interface.
