Indexing not utilized during the MongoDB aggregation query

I have stuck somewhere in MongoDB aggregate query. I tried to generate a summary report from the database which contains 110M records. during the report generation, I faced the following issues 1).Even though the collection is indexed they are not utilized for the search. 2).Once query execution finished memory of DB server not decreased. 3)query take considerable time to return the result.

im useing mongodb Atlas v4.2.8

    }
}])

indexes as follows

accountId_1 / accountId_1_createdDateTime_-1 / campaignId_-1 / channel_1 / createdDateTime_-1 / messageType_1 / msgId_-1 / msgId_-1_status_1

I would be appreciated if someone can help me with this

Thanks

Hi @Praveena_Buddhika,

Welcome to MongoDB community!

What makes you believe that no index is used? Have you located the log entry with this particular aggregation?

The aggregation is pretty complex involving many aggregate stages where the index is not in playing a part and those are running in memory.

Having said that I believe indexing all match stage predict as one compound index should allow better performance:

accountId : 1, messageType : 1, channel : 1, createdDateTime : 1

Additionally, you might consider using new $merge stage periodically and have this report query as a materialized view constantly updating or use $out to create monthly report collections.

Best
