Core Processes
The core components in the MongoDB package are:
the core database process | |
the controller and query router for sharded clusters | |
the interactive shell |
Windows Services
The mongod.exe and mongos.exe binaries configure MongoDB as a Windows Service. They provide a superset of the mongod and mongos options.
Security Tools
mongoldap validates a system's LDAP configuration, and mongokerberos validates a system's Kerberos configuration. Both tools test that authentication succeeds for a specified username.
MongoDB Compass
MongoDB is packaged with an install_compass script, which is a platform-specific installer for MongoDB Compass Community Edition.
