SQL to MongoDB Mapping Chart
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/sql-comparison/
In addition to the charts that follow, you might want to consider the Frequently Asked Questions section for a selection of common questions about MongoDB.
Terminology and Concepts
The following table presents the various SQL terminology and concepts and the corresponding MongoDB terminology and concepts.
| SQL Terms/Concepts | MongoDB Terms/Concepts |
|---|---|
| database | database |
| table | collection |
| row | document or BSON document |
| column | field |
| index | index |
| table joins | embedded documents and linking |
|
primary key Specify any unique column or column combination as primary key. |
In MongoDB, the primary key is automatically set to the _id field. |
| aggregation (e.g. group by) |
aggregation pipeline See the SQL to Aggregation Mapping Chart. |
Executables
The following table presents some database executables and the corresponding MongoDB executables. This table is not meant to be exhaustive.
| MongoDB | MySQL | Oracle | Informix | DB2 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Database Server | mongod | mysqld | oracle | IDS | DB2 Server |
| Database Client | mongo | mysql | sqlplus | DB-Access | DB2 Client |
Examples
The following table presents the various SQL statements and the corresponding MongoDB statements. The examples in the table assume the following conditions:
-
The SQL examples assume a table named users.
-
The MongoDB examples assume a collection named users that contain documents of the following prototype:
{ _id: ObjectId("509a8fb2f3f4948bd2f983a0"), user_id: "abc123", age: 55, status: ‘A‘ }
Create and Alter
The following table presents the various SQL statements related to table-level actions and the corresponding MongoDB statements.
| SQL Schema Statements | MongoDB Schema Statements |
|---|---|
CREATE TABLE users (
id MEDIUMINT NOT NULL
AUTO_INCREMENT,
user_id Varchar(30),
age Number,
status char(1),
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
|
Implicitly created on first insert() operation. The primary key _id is automatically added if _id field is not specified. db.users.insert( {
user_id: "abc123",
age: 55,
status: "A"
} )
However, you can also explicitly create a collection: db.createCollection("users")
|
ALTER TABLE users
ADD join_date DATETIME
|
Collections do not describe or enforce the structure of its documents; i.e. there is no structural alteration at the collection level. However, at the document level, update() operations can add fields to existing documents using the $set operator. db.users.update(
{ },
{ $set: { join_date: new Date() } },
{ multi: true }
)
|
ALTER TABLE users
DROP COLUMN join_date
|
Collections do not describe or enforce the structure of its documents; i.e. there is no structural alteration at the collection level. However, at the document level, update() operations can remove fields from documents using the $unset operator. db.users.update(
{ },
{ $unset: { join_date: "" } },
{ multi: true }
)
|
CREATE INDEX idx_user_id_asc
ON users(user_id)
|
db.users.ensureIndex( { user_id: 1 } )
|
CREATE INDEX
idx_user_id_asc_age_desc
ON users(user_id, age DESC)
|
db.users.ensureIndex( { user_id: 1, age: -1 } )
|
DROP TABLE users
|
db.users.drop()
|
For more information, see db.collection.insert(), db.createCollection(), db.collection.update(), $set, $unset, db.collection.ensureIndex(), indexes, db.collection.drop(), and Data Modeling Concepts.
Insert
The following table presents the various SQL statements related to inserting records into tables and the corresponding MongoDB statements.
| SQL INSERT Statements | MongoDB insert() Statements |

"A")
|
db.users.insert(
{ user_id: "bcd001", age: 45, status: "A" }
