MongoDB Adapter Reference


This page explains the MongoDB Adapter in Bridge context. If you were looking for the same information regarding the PAS Designer, refer to MongoDB Adapter in the Designer guide.

Tagged Values

<<MongoDBAlias>>


The settings on the <<MongoDBAlias>> are used to build the MongoDB connection string and to set database connection options. Each alias will create a separate connection pool. For each request, the xUML Runtime will use one connection from this pool for the entire request duration.

To use the MongoDB adapter it is helpful if you are familiar with the MongoDB options. Each listed tagged value is setting the MongoDB option having the same name.
Please refer to the MongoDB manual for more information on each option.
