Aggregation Pipeline

Part of the Backend Developer Roadmap

In short

MongoDB's framework for transforming and analyzing data through a sequence of stages (`$match`, `$group`, `$sort`) — the NoSQL equivalent of complex SQL queries.

How to learn this

  1. 1Build a pipeline that groups documents and computes a sum or average.
  2. 2Chain `$match` and `$group` stages to filter before aggregating.
  3. 3Compare an aggregation pipeline to the equivalent SQL `GROUP BY` query.
