Text Search
On this page
MongoDB offers a full-text search solution, MongoDB Atlas Search, for data hosted on MongoDB Atlas. Users running self-managed MongoDB deployments have access to on-premises text search capabilities.
MongoDB Atlas Search
For MongoDB Atlas users, MongoDB's Atlas Search supports fine-grained
text indexing and a rich query language for fast, relevant search
results. To learn more about full-text search indexes and
$search queries, see:
Atlas Search also offers common analyzers for parsing text for full-text search, including support for over 40 language-specific analyzers.
On-Premises Text Search
For on-premises (non-Atlas) deployments, MongoDB's text search
capability supports query operations that perform a text search of
string content. To perform text search, MongoDB uses a text index and the $text operator.
Views do not support text search.

MongoDB also supports text search for various languages. See Text Search Languages for a list of supported languages.
