MongoDB is a free and open source document-oriented NoSQL and cross-platform database server. It is a high-performance database program, used by one of the biggest companies in the world like Google, Adobe, SAP, EA, eBay, Verizon. The process of <strong>Installing MongoDB on Ubuntu 16.04<\/strong> should take approximately\u00a0 10 minutes.\u00a0In this tutorial, we will install the MongoDB community version.

First, let us explain briefly what systemd unit files are. Unit files keep information about services, sockets, devices, basically, any resource managed by systemd which is an init system used by a large number of Linux distributions.<\/p>\n<p>Create the file in the \/etc\/systemd\/system\/ directory using nano:<\/p>\n<pre> # sudo nano \/etc\/systemd\/system\/mongodb.service<\/pre>\n<p>Paste the following text below:<\/p>\n<pre>[Unit]\r\nDescription=High-performance, schema-free document-oriented database\r\nAfter=network.target\r\nDocumentation=https:\/\/docs.mongodb.org\/manual\r\n\r\n[Service]\r\nUser=mongodb\r\nGroup=mongodb\r\nExecStart=\/usr\/bin\/mongod --quiet --config \/etc\/mongod.conf\r\n\r\n[Install]\r\nWantedBy=multi-user.target\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Make sure to save (press Ctrl+O) and close (press Ctrl+X) the file.<br \/>\nNow we have to update systemd to include our newly created service and we enable and start the service:<\/p>\n<pre> # sudo systemctl daemon-reload\r\n # sudo systemctl enable mongod\r\n # sudo systemctl start mongod\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Check to see if the service is running:<\/p>\n<pre> # systemctl status mongod<\/pre>\n<p>The output should look something like this:<\/p>\n<pre>\u25cf mongodb.service - High-performance, schema-free document-oriented database\r\n   Loaded: loaded (\/lib\/systemd\/system\/mongod.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)\r\n   Active: active (running) since Thu 2017-06-29 07:13:54 CDT; 8s ago\r\n     Docs: https:\/\/docs.mongodb.org\/manual\r\n Main PID: 4734 (mongod)\r\n   CGroup: \/system.slice\/mongodb.service\r\n           \u2514\u25004734 \/usr\/bin\/mongod --quiet --config \/etc\/mongod.conf\r\n\r\nJun 29 07:13:54 test systemd[1]: Started High-performance, schema-free document-oriented database.\r\n<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Configuring-MongoDB-administrator-username\"><\/span>4.
