Optimizing MongoDB Performance with Indexing Strategies
Sahil KhaireMongoDB is a popular NoSQL database that efficiently handles large volumes of unstructured data. However, as datasets grow, query performance can degrade due to increased document scans. This is where indexes play a crucial role in optimizing MongoDB queries by reducing the number of documents scanned. In this blog, we will explore MongoDB indexing, various index types, and best practices for using them efficiently.

How Redis Helps to Increase Service Performance
Sahil KhaireIn modern backend applications, performance optimization is crucial for handling high traffic efficiently. Typically, a backend application consists of business logic and a database. Initially, developers focus on implementing functionality, often overlooking performance considerations. As traffic increases, database operations become a bottleneck, leading to high server loads. System administrators often respond by scaling server configurations to support the growing load. However, can we handle the same load on a lower configuration server? The answer is yes, provided the code is optimized effectively. One of the most powerful solutions for optimizing backend performance is Redis caching.
