Siva talks about the MongoDB Aggregation operators and how to use them to get the maximum benefits. Good code samples help us understand complex use-cases!
Most programmers who use MongoDB may have heard about its aggregation framework but only a few have used it to its full potential. Recently, in one of our projects, we got a complex requirement where the user needed to generate a report of sales done for any day, month or year. Using just MongoDB queries would have been very slow compared to the aggregation framework. So I decided to take up the challenge and learn the aggregation operators and make my code awesome! Here are the operators that helped me:
