Important Takeaways About $out Stage
- Using the $out stage for querying database efficiently developers can write/store query results in a new collection.
- If the specified collection does not exist, the $out operator creates a new collection.
- If the collection specified by the $out operation already exists, then after aggregation completion, the $out stage replaces the original collection with a new one.
- It can not write results into a capped collection.
- Sharded collection can not be specified as output collection in the $out stage.
- Allows deeper exploration and analysis of data while enabling the performance of operations and insightful conclusions.
MongoDB Aggregation $out
MongoDB’s Aggregation Pipeline is a powerful tool for data processing that allows users to perform a series of operations to filter, transform, and analyze data. One key stage in the aggregation pipeline is the $out stage, which enables users to write the output of the pipeline to a new collection.
In this article, we’ll explore the $out stage in the MongoDB aggregation pipeline along with its syntax, use cases, and examples of how it can be used efficiently to manage and analyze data.
