Replication (1/3)
Discuss replication in MongoDB?
Replication in MongoDB is a process that ensures data is duplicated and consistently synchronized across multiple servers. It enhances data availability, fault tolerance, and system resilience in case of hardware failures or network issues.
- In some cases, replication can provide increased read capacity as clients can send read operations to different servers.
- MongoDB uses replica sets for replication. A replica set is a group of MongoDB servers that maintain the same data set.
