The Value of Not Understanding MongoDB, Half 3: appV6R0 to appV6R4
Welcome to the third and remaining a part of the sequence “The Value of Not Understanding MongoDB.” Constructing upon the foundational optimizations explored in
Half 1
and
Half 2
, this text delves into superior MongoDB design patterns that may dramatically rework software efficiency.
In Half 1, we improved software efficiency by concatenating fields, altering information varieties, and shortening area names. In Half 2, we applied the
Bucket Sample
and
Computed Sample
and optimized the aggregation pipeline to attain even higher efficiency.
On this remaining article, we handle the
points and enhancements
recognized in
appV5R4
. Particularly, we deal with lowering the doc dimension in our software to alleviate the disk throughput bottleneck on the MongoDB server. This discount might be completed by adopting a
dynamic schema
and modifying the storage compression algorithm.
All the applying variations and revisions from this text had been developed by a senior MongoDB developer, as they’re constructed on all of the earlier variations and make the most of the Dynamic Schema sample, which is not quite common to see.
Software model 6 revision 0 (appV6R0): A dynamic month-to-month bucket doc
As talked about within the Points and Enhancements of appV5R4 from the
earlier article
, the first limitation of our MongoDB server is its disk throughput. To deal with this, we have to scale back the scale of the paperwork being saved.
Take into account the next doc from appV5R3, which has supplied the most effective efficiency to date:
const doc = {
_id: Buffer.from(“…01202202”),
objects: [
{ date: new Date(“2022-06-05”), a: 10, n: 3 },
{ date: new Date(“2022-06-16”), p: 1, r: 1 },
{ date: new Date(“2022-06-27”), a: 5, r: 1 },
{ date: new Date(“2022-06-29”), p: 1 },
],
};
The objects array on this doc incorporates solely 4 components, however on common, it’s going to have round 10 components, and within the worst-case situation, it may have as much as 90 components. These components are the first contributors to the doc dimension, so they need to be the main target of our optimization efforts.
One commonality among the many components is the presence of the date area, with its worth together with the 12 months and month, for the earlier doc. By rethinking how this area and its worth could possibly be saved, we are able to scale back storage necessities.
An unconventional answer we may use is:
Altering the objects area sort from an array to a doc.
Utilizing the date worth as the sector identify within the objects doc.
Storing the standing totals as the worth for every date area.
Right here is the earlier doc represented utilizing the brand new schema thought:
const doc = {
_id: Buffer.from(“…01202202”),
objects: {
20220605: { a: 10, n: 3 },
20220616: { p: 1, r: 1 },
20220627: { a: 5, r: 1 },
20220629: { p: 1 },
},
};
Whereas this schema might not considerably scale back the doc dimension in comparison with appV5R3, we are able to additional optimize it by leveraging the truth that the 12 months is already embedded within the _id area. This eliminates the necessity to repeat the 12 months within the area names of the objects doc.
With this method, the objects doc adopts a Dynamic Schema, the place area names encode data and aren’t predefined.
To display varied implementation prospects, we’ll revisit all of the bucketing standards used within the appV5RX implementations, beginning with appV5R0.
For appV6R0, which builds upon appV5R0 however makes use of a dynamic schema, information is bucketed by 12 months and month. The sphere names within the objects doc signify solely the day of the date, because the 12 months and month are already saved within the _id area.
An in depth clarification of the bucketing logic and features used to implement the present software will be discovered within the
appV5R0 introduction
.
The next doc shops information for January 2022 (2022-01-XX), making use of the newly introduced thought:
const doc = {
_id: Buffer.from(“…01202201”),
objects: {
“05”: { a: 10, n: 3 },
16: { p: 1, r: 1 },
27: { a: 5, r: 1 },
29: { p: 1 },
},
};
Schema
The applying implementation introduced above would have the next TypeScript doc schema denominated SchemaV6R0:
export sort SchemaV6R0 = {
_id: Buffer;
objects: File<
string,
{
a?: quantity;
n?: quantity;
p?: quantity;
r?: quantity;
}
>;
};
Bulk upsert
Primarily based on the specification introduced, we have now the next updateOne operation for every occasion generated by this software model:
const DD = getDD(occasion.date); // Extract the `day` from the `occasion.date`
const operation = {
updateOne: {
filter: { _id: buildId(occasion.key, occasion.date) }, // key + 12 months + month
replace: {
$inc: {
[`items.${DD}.a`]: occasion.accredited,
[`items.${DD}.n`]: occasion.noFunds,
[`items.${DD}.p`]: occasion.pending,
[`items.${DD}.r`]: occasion.rejected,
},
},
upsert: true,
},
};
filter:
Goal the doc the place the _id area matches the concatenated worth of key, 12 months, and month.
The buildId operate converts the important thing+12 months+month right into a binary format.
replace:
Makes use of the
$inc
operator to increment the fields similar to the identical DD because the occasion by the standing values supplied.
If a area doesn’t exist within the objects doc and the occasion gives a price for it, $inc treats the non-existent area as having a price of 0 and performs the operation.
If a area exists within the objects doc however the occasion doesn’t present a price for it (i.e., undefined), $inc treats it as 0 and performs the operation.
upsert:
Ensures a brand new doc is created if no matching doc exists.
Get stories
To satisfy the Get Experiences operation, 5 aggregation pipelines are required, one for every date interval. Every pipeline follows the identical construction, differing solely within the filtering standards within the $match stage:
const pipeline = [
{ $match: docsFromKeyBetweenDate },
{ $addFields: buildTotalsField },
{ $group: groupSumTotals },
{ $project: { _id: 0 } },
];
The whole code for this aggregation pipeline is sort of difficult. Due to that, we can have only a pseudocode for it right here.
1:
{ $match: docsFromKeyBetweenDate }
Vary-filters paperwork by _id to retrieve solely buckets throughout the report date vary. It has the identical logic as appV5R0.
2:
{ $addFields: buildTotalsField }
The logic is much like the one used within the Get Experiences of appV5R3.
The
$objectToArray
operator is used to transform the objects doc into an array, enabling a $scale back operation.
Filtering the objects fields throughout the report’s vary entails extracting the 12 months and month from the _id area and the day from the sector names within the objects doc.
The next JavaScript code is logic equal to the true aggregation pipeline code.
// Equal JavaScript logic:
const [MM] = _id.slice(-2).toString(); // Get month from _id
const [YYYY] = _id.slice(-6, -2).toString(); // Get 12 months from _id
const items_array = Object.entries(objects); // Convert the article to an array of [key, value]
const totals = items_array.scale back(
(accumulator, [DD, status]) => {
let statusDate = new Date(`${YYYY}-${MM}-${DD}`);
if (statusDate >= reportStartDate && statusDate < reportEndDate) 0;
accumulator.r += standing.r
return accumulator;
},
{ a: 0, n: 0, p: 0, r: 0 }
);
3:
{ $group: groupCountTotals }
Group the totals of every doc within the pipeline into remaining standing totals utilizing $sum operations.
4:
{ $venture: { _id: 0 } }
Format the ensuing doc to have the stories format.
Indexes
No further indexes are required, sustaining the only _id index method established within the appV4 implementation.

It’s difficult to make a direct comparability between appV6R0 and appV5R0 from a storage perspective. The appV5R0 implementation is the best bucketing attainable, the place occasion paperwork had been merely appended to the objects array with out bucketing by day, as is completed in appV6R0.
Nevertheless, we are able to try a comparability between appV6R0 and appV5R3, the most effective answer to date. In appV6R0, information is bucketed by month, whereas in appV5R3, it’s bucketed by quarter. Assuming doc dimension scales linearly with the bucketing standards (although this isn’t completely correct), the appV6R0 doc could be roughly 3 * 125 = 375 bytes, which is 9.4% smaller than appV5R3.
One other indicator of enchancment is the Knowledge Measurement/Occasions metric within the Occasion Statistics desk. For appV6R0, every occasion makes use of a mean of 23.8 bytes, in comparison with 27.7 bytes for appV5R3, representing a 14.1% discount in dimension.
Load take a look at outcomes
Executing the load take a look at for appV6R0 and plotting it alongside the outcomes for appV5R0 and Desired charges, we have now the next outcomes for Get Experiences and Bulk Upsert.

Efficiency abstract
Regardless of the numerous discount in doc and storage dimension achieved by appV6R0, the efficiency enchancment was not as substantial as anticipated. This means that the bottleneck within the software when bucketing information by month will not be associated to disk throughput.
Inspecting the gathering stats desk reveals that the index dimension for each variations is near 3GB. That is close to the 4GB of obtainable reminiscence on the machine operating the database and exceeds the
1.5GB allotted by WiredTiger for cache
. Due to this fact, it’s possible that the limiting issue on this case is reminiscence/cache reasonably than doc dimension, which explains the dearth of a big efficiency enchancment.
Points and enhancements
To deal with the restrictions noticed in appV6R0, we suggest adopting the identical line of enhancements utilized from appV5R0 to appV5R1. Particularly, we’ll bucket the occasions by quarter in appV6R1. This method not solely follows the established sample of enhancements but in addition aligns with the necessity to optimize efficiency additional.
As highlighted within the Load Take a look at Outcomes, the present bottleneck lies within the dimension of the index relative to the accessible cache/reminiscence. By growing the bucketing interval from month to quarter, we are able to scale back the variety of paperwork by roughly an element of three. This discount will, in flip, lower the variety of index entries by the identical issue, resulting in a smaller index dimension.
Software model 6 revision 1 (appV6R1): A dynamic quarter bucket doc
As mentioned within the earlier Points and Enhancements part, the first bottleneck in appV6R0 was the index dimension nearing the reminiscence capability of the machine operating MongoDB. To mitigate this problem, we suggest growing the bucketing interval from a month to 1 / 4 for appV6R1, following the method utilized in appV5R1.
This adjustment goals to scale back the variety of paperwork and index entries by roughly an element of three, thereby reducing the general index dimension. By adopting a quarter-based bucketing technique, we align with the established sample of enhancements utilized in appV5R1 variations whereas addressing the particular reminiscence/cache constraints recognized in appV6R0.
The implementation of appV6R1 retains many of the code from appV6R0, with the next key variations:
The _id area will now be composed of key+12 months+quarter.
The sphere names within the objects doc will encode each month and day, as this data is important for filtering date ranges within the Get Experiences operation.
The next instance demonstrates how information for June 2022 (2022-06-XX), throughout the second quarter (Q2), is saved utilizing the brand new schema:
const doc = {
_id: Buffer.from(“…01202202”),
objects: {
“0605”: { a: 10, n: 3 },
“0616”: { p: 1, r: 1 },
“0627”: { a: 5, r: 1 },
“0629”: { p: 1 },
},
};
Schema
The applying implementation introduced above would have the next TypeScript doc schema denominated SchemaV6R0:
export sort SchemaV6R0 = {
_id: Buffer;
objects: File<
string,
{
a?: quantity;
n?: quantity;
p?: quantity;
r?: quantity;
}
>;
};
Bulk upsert
Primarily based on the specification introduced, we have now the next updateOne operation for every occasion generated by this software model:
const MMDD = getMMDD(occasion.date); // Extract the month (MM) and day(DD) from the `occasion.date`
const operation = {
updateOne: {
filter: { _id: buildId(occasion.key, occasion.date) }, // key + 12 months + quarter
replace: {
$inc: {

[`items.${MMDD}.n`]: occasion.noFunds,
[`items.${MMDD}.p`]: occasion.pending,
[`items.${MMDD}.r`]: occasion.rejected,
},
},
upsert: true,
},
};
This updateOne operation has an identical logic to the one in appV6R0, with the one variations being the filter and replace standards.

Within the earlier Preliminary Situation Statistics evaluation, we assumed that doc dimension would scale linearly with the bucketing vary. Nevertheless, this assumption proved inaccurate. The typical doc dimension in appV6R1 is roughly twice as giant as in appV6R0, though it shops 3 times extra information. Already a win for this new implementation.
Since appV6R1 buckets information by quarter on the doc stage and by day throughout the objects sub-document, a good comparability could be with appV5R3, the best-performing model to date. From the tables above, we observe a big enchancment in Doc Measurement and consequently Knowledge Measurement when transitioning from appV5R3 to appV6R1. Particularly, there was a 31.4% discount in Doc Measurement. From an index dimension perspective, there was no change, as each variations bucket occasions by quarter.

As anticipated, we had an 11.2% improve within the Doc Measurement by including a totals area in every doc of appV6R2. When evaluating to appV5R3, we nonetheless have a discount of 23.9% within the Doc Measurement. Let’s evaluation the Load Take a look at Outcomes to see if the trade-off between storage and computation price is worth it.
Load take a look at outcomes
Executing the load take a look at for appV6R2 and plotting it alongside the outcomes for appV6R1 and Desired charges, we have now the next outcomes for Get Experiences and Bulk Upsert.
Get Experiences charges
We are able to see that appV6R2 has higher charges than appV6R1 all through the take a look at, however it’s nonetheless not reaching the highest fee of 250 stories per second.

Determine 12.
Graph displaying the latency of appV6R1 and appV6R2 when executing the load take a look at for Bulk Upsert performance. Each variations have related latencies.
Efficiency abstract
The 2 “maybes” from the earlier Points and Enhancements made up for his or her guarantees, and we received the most effective efficiency for appV6R2 when evaluating to appV6R1. That is the redemption of the Computed Sample utilized on a doc stage. This revision is one among my favorites as a result of it reveals that the identical optimization on very related functions can result in totally different outcomes. In our case, the distinction was brought on by the applying being very bottlenecked by the disk throughput.
Points and enhancements
Let’s sort out the final enchancment on an software stage. These paying shut consideration to the applying variations might have already questioned it. In each Get Experiences part, we have now “To satisfy the Get Experiences operation, 5 aggregation pipelines are required, one for every date interval.” Do we actually must run 5 aggregation pipelines to generate the stories doc? Is not there a strategy to calculate every thing in only one operation? The reply is sure, there’s.
The stories paperwork are composed of fields oneYear, threeYears, fiveYears, sevenYears, and tenYears, the place every one was generated by its respective aggregation pipeline till now. Producing the stories this manner is a waste of processing energy as a result of we’re doing a little a part of the calculation a number of occasions. For instance, to calculate the standing totals for tenYears, we will even should calculate the standing totals for the opposite fields, as from a date vary perspective, they’re all contained within the tenYears date vary.
So, for our subsequent software revision, we’ll condense the Get Experiences 5 aggregation pipelines into one, avoiding losing processing energy on repeated calculation.
Software model 6 revision 3 (appV6R3): Getting every thing without delay
As mentioned within the earlier Points and Enhancements part, on this revision, we’ll enhance the efficiency of our software by altering the Get Experiences performance to generate the stories doc utilizing just one aggregation pipeline as a substitute of 5.
The rationale behind this enchancment is that after we generate the tenYears totals, we have now additionally calculated the opposite totals, oneYear, threeYears, fiveYears, and sevenYears. For example, after we request to Get Experiences with the important thing …0001 with the date 2022-01-01, the totals might be calculated with the next date vary:
oneYear: from 2021-01-01 to 2022-01-01
threeYears: from 2020-01-01 to 2022-01-01
fiveYears: from 2018-01-01 to 2022-01-01
sevenYears: from 2016-01-01 to 2022-01-01
tenYear: from 2013-01-01 to 2022-01-01
As we are able to see from the record above, the date vary for tenYears encompasses all the opposite date ranges.
Though we efficiently applied the Computed Sample within the earlier revision, appV6R2, reaching higher outcomes than appV6R1, we is not going to use it as a base for this revision. There have been two causes for that:
Primarily based on the outcomes of our earlier implementation of the Computed Sample on a doc stage, from appV5R3 to appV5R4, I did not count on it to get higher outcomes.
Implementing Get Experiences to retrieve the stories doc by way of a single aggregation pipeline, using pre-computed area totals generated by the Computed Sample would require vital effort. By the point of the most recent variations of this sequence, I simply needed to complete it.
So, this revision might be constructed based mostly on the appV6R1.
Schema
The applying implementation introduced above would have the next TypeScript doc schema denominated SchemaV6R0:
export sort SchemaV6R0 = {
_id: Buffer;
objects: File<
string,
{
a?: quantity;
n?: quantity;
p?: quantity;
r?: quantity;
}
>;
};
Bulk upsert
Primarily based on the specs, the next bulk updateOne operation is used for every occasion generated by the applying:
const YYYYMMDD = getYYYYMMDD(occasion.date); // Extract the 12 months(YYYY), month(MM), and day(DD) from the `occasion.date`
const operation = {
updateOne: {
filter: { _id: buildId(occasion.key, occasion.date) }, // key + 12 months + quarter
replace: {
$inc: {
[`items.${YYYYMMDD}.a`]: occasion.accredited,
[`items.${YYYYMMDD}.n`]: occasion.noFunds,
[`items.${YYYYMMDD}.p`]: occasion.pending,
[`items.${YYYYMMDD}.r`]: occasion.rejected,
},
},
upsert: true,
},
};
This updateOne has virtually precisely the identical logic because the one for appV6R1. The distinction is that the identify of the fields within the objects doc might be created based mostly on 12 months, month, and day (YYYYMMDD) as a substitute of simply month and day (MMDD). This alteration was made to scale back the complexity of the aggregation pipeline of the Get Experiences.
Get stories
To satisfy the Get Experiences operation, one aggregation pipeline is required:
const pipeline = [
{ $match: docsFromKeyBetweenDate },
{ $addFields: buildTotalsField },
{ $group: groupCountTotals },
{ $project: format },
];
This aggregation operation has an identical logic to the one in appV6R1, with the one variations being the implementation within the $addFields stage.
{ $addFields: buildTotalsField }
It follows an identical logic to the earlier revision, the place we first convert the objects doc into an array utilizing $objectToArray, after which use the scale back operate to iterate over the array, accumulating the standing.
The distinction lies within the preliminary worth and the logic of the scale back operate.
The preliminary worth on this case is an object/doc with one area for every of the report date ranges. These fields for every report date vary are additionally an object/doc, with their fields being the attainable standing set to zero, as that is the preliminary worth.
The logic on this case checks the date vary of the merchandise and increments the totals accordingly. If the merchandise isInOneYearDateRange(…), it is usually in all the opposite date ranges: three, 5, seven, and 10 years. If the merchandise isInThreeYearsDateRange(…), it is usually in all the opposite extensive date ranges, 5, seven, and 10 years.
The next JavaScript code is logic equal to the true aggregation pipeline code. Senior builders may make the argument that this implementation could possibly be much less verbose or extra optimized. Nevertheless, as a consequence of how MongoDB aggregation pipeline operators are specified, that is the way it was applied.
const itemsArray = Object.entries(objects); // Convert the article to an array of [key, value]
const totals = itemsArray.scale back(
(totals, [YYYYMMDD, status]) => {
const [YYYY] = YYYYMMDD.slice(0, 4).toString(); // Get 12 months
const [MM] = YYYYMMDD.slice(4, 6).toString(); // Get month
const [DD] = YYYYMMDD.slice(6, 8).toString(); // Get day
let statusDate = new Date(`${YYYY}-${MM}-${DD}`);
if isInOneYearDateRange(statusDate) {
totals.oneYear = incrementTotals(totals.oneYear, standing);
totals.threeYears = incrementTotals(totals.threeYears, standing);
totals.fiveYears = incrementTotals(totals.fiveYears, standing);
totals.sevenYears = incrementTotals(totals.sevenYears, standing);
totals.tenYears = incrementTotals(totals.tenYears, standing);
} else if isInThreeYearsDateRange(statusDate) {
totals.threeYears = incrementTotals(totals.threeYears, standing);
totals.fiveYears = incrementTotals(totals.fiveYears, standing);
totals.sevenYears = incrementTotals(totals.sevenYears, standing);
totals.tenYears = incrementTotals(totals.tenYears, standing);
} else if isInFiveYearsDateRange(statusDate) {
totals.fiveYears = incrementTotals(totals.fiveYears, standing);
totals.sevenYears = incrementTotals(totals.sevenYears, standing);
totals.tenYears = incrementTotals(totals.tenYears, standing);
} else if isInSevenYearsDateRange(statusDate) {
totals.sevenYears = incrementTotals(totals.sevenYears, standing);
totals.tenYears = incrementTotals(totals.tenYears, standing);
} else if isInTenYearsDateRange(statusDate) {
totals.tenYears = incrementTotals(totals.tenYears, standing);
}
return totals;
},
{
oneYear: { a: 0, n: 0, p: 0, r: 0 },
threeYears: { a: 0, n: 0, p: 0, r: 0 },
fiveYears: { a: 0, n: 0, p: 0, r: 0 },
sevenYears: { a: 0, n: 0, p: 0, r: 0 },
tenYears: { a: 0, n: 0, p: 0, r: 0 },
},
);

Points and enhancements
The principle bottleneck in our MongoDB server continues to be the disk throughput. As talked about within the earlier Points and Enhancements, this was the application-level enchancment. How can we additional optimize on our present {hardware}?
If we take a more in-depth take a look at the
MongoDB documentation
, we’ll discover out that by default, it makes use of block compression with the snappy compression library for all collections. Earlier than the information is written to disk, it will be compressed utilizing the snappy library to scale back its dimension and pace up the writing course of.
Would it not be attainable to make use of a distinct and simpler compression library to scale back the scale of the information even additional and, as a consequence, scale back the load on the server’s disk? Sure, and within the following software revision, we’ll use the zstd compression library as a substitute of the default snappy compression library.
Software model 6 revision 4 (appV6R4)
As mentioned within the earlier Points and Enhancements part, the efficiency features of this model might be supplied by altering the algorithm of the
assortment block compressor
