MongoDB Stitch¶
MongoDB Stitch is a backend as a service that provides an HTTP API to MongoDB, integration with other services, and a declarative rules infrastructure which spans database and service actions. MongoDB Stitch can:
- ➤ Add a Feature to an Existing Application
For existing applications, MongoDB Stitch can facilitate the addition of new features. For example, you can use MongoDB Stitch to:
- Add commenting to a blog (See Build Your First MongoDB Stitch App).
- Add reviews to an e-commerce site
- Providing richer user profile by allowing users to upload photos.
- ➤ Control How You Expose Data to Users or Anonymous Users
For existing Atlas clusters, you can easily and safely expose data to new users or application. For example, you can:
- Give users an easy way to read their own data (See ToDo Web App).
- Easily build admin pages exposing anonymous stats to admin users.
- Display a leaderboard.
- ➤ Integrate with Services
If you are not ready to adopt the full functionality of MongoDB Stitch, you can just use MongoDB Stitch to make integrating with services easier. For example:
- Accept text messages from Twilio and insert into MongoDB (See Integrate ToDo with Twilio).
- Create a pipeline for GitHub commits to send to XXX and store in MongoDB
- Send a message to Slack when specific data changes in your database.
- ➤ Be the Full Backend for Your Application
Use MongoDB Stitch to be the full backend for your application. For example:
- Build a Yelp clone (See PlateSpace Web App).
