koompi / Easy-MongoDB-Shard-Cluster

a MongoDB cluster allows a MongoDB database to either horizontally scale across many servers with sharding, or to replicate data ensuring high availability with MongoDB replica sets, therefore enhancing the overall performance and reliability of the MongoDB cluster.

MongoDB Cluster Replica Sets with Shards needs 3 type of instances

• Configuration Server: Store MetaData
• MongoS: MongoDB Reverse Proxy Router
• Shards: MongoDB storage slave which each hold a piece of information; hence, shards

All 3 instances type need to setup with Replica Set, a redundant backup server of itself.

• A Replica Set is consisted of 3 minor instances.

In order to secure Replica Sets

• communication with outside client, it needs TLS certificates. When applied, Auth is assumed, and it can be set up with username and password

• communication internal within group of instance, it also needs TLS certicates X509 compatible, but this project use text file instead (because I cannot seem to make it work).

After set up Configuration Server, a primary need to be set using initscript which calls to the other member of the set.

In order to complete the installation of MongoS, it needs:

• identity of the Configuration Primary Server
• identity of 2 Shards Replica Set (initiated using the initscript)

How to Run Development Testing

1. Create a .env file from sample.env or a .var file from sample.var file from all directories and fill out the need information; Example has been given
2. Run the run-dev.sh from this directory
3. Wait
