can i configure mongodb to be in memory

Question

I am interested in using a database that will allow high performance, with an expected requirement of cluster for a massive horizontal scaling.

We are looking into using MongoDB, does anyone know if I can use it InMemory (i.e. in the RAM - for performance reasons)?

Answer 1

The most demanding approach to configure MongoDB in memory is to use a RAM disk:

mongod --smallfiles --noprealloc --nojournal --dbpath <ramdisk mounted localtion>
