Installing MongoDB on a VPS (Virtual Private Server) involves a series of steps. The actual installation process might vary depending on your particular server and the operating system you are using. Here’s a generic installation procedure for Ubuntu OS:
1. First, update the packages list with the command:
`sudo apt-get update`1. Install MongoDB using the package manager. Run the following command:
`sudo apt-get install -y mongodb`1. After installation is complete, start the MongoDB service with this command:
`sudo systemctl start mongodb` You can verify that MongoDB has started successfully by checking the status: `sudo systemctl status mongodb`1. Enable the MongoDB service to start on boot:
`sudo systemctl enable mongodb`To install MongoDB on other operating systems such as CentOS, you may need to follow different steps. You can find the corresponding steps from the official MongoDB documentation.
Clarification Note: When operating on a live server, it’s always necessary to consider the security measurements and data privacy. Follow all the protocols and guidelines to keep your data safe when installing a new software.
Please replace the commands with the actual commands, the above-given commands are for Ubuntu 18.04.
Also, it is recommended to use the latest stable version from the official MongoDB repositories to take advantage of the latest features.
