# MongoDB integration

The MongoDB integration provides database monitoring for MongoDB deployments, from standalone instances to sharded clusters. It collects connection metrics and includes a too-many-connections alert.

| **What it’s for**  | Monitoring operations, connections, replication, and sharding health |
| **Under the hood** | Collects operations, connections, replication, and sharding metrics  |

## Metrics collected

The integration collects metrics across operations, connections, replication, and sharding:

- **Operations**: Queries, inserts, updates, deletes
- **Connections**: Current, available, usage
- **Replication**: Oplog window, member state
- **Sharding**: Chunk distribution, balancer

## What to know

This integration offers:

- Prebuilt dashboards: MongoDB overview, MongoDB instance, MongoDB replica set, and MongoDB cluster
- 10 prebuilt alerts, including replication lag and connections
- Replica set and sharding visibility
- Oplog window and member state
