- \n
- It is a single MongoDB instance that holds a subset of the sharded data.<\/li>\n
- It can be deployed as replica sets to provide redundancy and increase availability.<\/li>\n
- The combination of multiple shards creates a complete data set.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Query router :<\/h4>\n
- \n
- Query router acts as a Mongos providing a stable interface between the application and the sharded cluster.<\/li>\n
- In this MongoDB instance is responsible for routing the client requests to the correct shard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Config Server :<\/h4>\n
