Q1Domain Verified
In the context of designing a MongoDB schema for a social media platform, which of the following embedding strategies best balances read performance for frequently accessed user profiles with the need to avoid excessively large documents?
Embedding user profile information (name, bio, avatar) and referencing all user posts.
Embedding only the user's most recent 10 posts within the user document and referencing older posts.
Embedding all user posts directly within the user document.
Embedding user's followers and following lists as arrays of ObjectIDs within the user document.
Q2Domain Verified
When modeling a one-to-many relationship in MongoDB, such as a blog post and its comments, which approach is generally preferred for scenarios where comments are frequently read alongside their parent post and the number of comments per post is expected to be manageable?
Using a separate "comments" collection and referencing each comment with the post's `_id`.
Embedding an array of comment sub-documents directly within the "posts" document.
Storing comments in a separate "comments" collection and only storing the count of comments in the "posts" document.
Using a "posts" collection and a "comments" collection, and referencing the post's `_id` within each comment document.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where you have an "orders" collection and an "items" collection, and an order can contain many items. If you need to frequently retrieve an order along with its detailed item information for reporting purposes, and the number of items per order can vary significantly but is generally less than 100, what is the most efficient schema design?
Create a separate "items" collection and embed an array of item `_id` references within each "item" document, linking back to the order.
Use a hybrid approach: embed basic item details (name, quantity, price) directly in the "orders" document, and for complex item attributes, use a separate "item_details" collection referenced by `_id`.
Create a separate "items" collection and embed an array of item `_id` references within the "orders" document.
Embed the entire "items" sub-document array directly within the "orders" document.
