INTELIE Live delivers the capability of storing events as documents in MongoDB servers. The MongoDB Storage Provider is the most deployed plugin in our customer environments.
The event type for Live will become the collection name for the documents. The timestamp field will be used as the default ordering criteria.
This plugin supports the management of indexes and collections by its own. Custom indexes can be created directly from the Integrations administration page.
Live index semantics is strongly inspired in the MongoDB index capabilities. See partial indexes to understand advanced usages.
A storage provider is not used by users directly but will be used indirectly once you fired historical queries through Pipes expressions. Live MongoDB plugin also supports many storage hints in order to improve the query performance by change the ordering criteria, limit the results or specify conditions to find the documents.
Specially the .wherestorage hint can take advantage in performance once you have custom indexes to support more efficient query plans. Most of expressions written in Pipes will be translated automatically for MongoDB find criterias.
You can identify the queries being fired at MongoDB installations easily from the Integrations administration page for each storage provider you have configured.
Live API enables the creation of customized query providers. Live MongoDB Plugin delivers a new option at Live Console to execute MongoDB database commands over the MongoDB integrations currently configured.
In most of installations, database commands can be executed but the MongoDB database administrator can limit the permissions for the database configured for the Live instance.
Apart of that, the query provider can follow the query period definition, so in order to execute a single command with no periodic semantics you must start by typing //@noeval as a marker in the code area. After, in a new line, you can use any MongoDB query commands or database command.
For example, type the following, uncheck the Follow query period definition and click to Run.
