MongoDB Sharding with Hidden-node
This tutorial will show you how to use KubeDB to run a sharded MongoDB cluster with hidden node.
Before You Begin
Before proceeding:
Read mongodb hidden-node concept to get the concept about MongoDB Replica Set Hidden-node.
You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using kind.
Now, install KubeDB cli on your workstation and KubeDB operator in your cluster following the steps here.
To keep things isolated, this tutorial uses a separate namespace called
demothroughout this tutorial. Run the following command to prepare your cluster for this tutorial:$ kubectl create ns demo namespace/demo created
Note: The yaml files used in this tutorial are stored in docs/examples/mongodb folder in GitHub repository kubedb/docs.
Deploy Sharded MongoDB Cluster
To deploy a MongoDB Sharding, user have to specify spec.shardTopology option in Mongodb CRD.
The following is an example of a Mongodb object which creates MongoDB Sharding of three type of members.
apiVersion: kubedb.com/v1alpha2
kind: MongoDB
metadata:
name: mongo-sh-hid

Here,
spec.shardTopologyrepresents the topology configuration for sharding.shardrepresents configuration for Shard component of mongodb.shardsrepresents number of shards for a mongodb deployment. Each shard is deployed as a replicaset.replicasrepresents number of replicas of each shard replicaset.prefixrepresents the prefix of each shard node.configSecretis an optional field to provide custom configuration file for shards (i.e mongod.cnf). If specified, this file will be used as configuration file otherwise a default configuration file will be used.podTemplateis an optional configuration for pods.storageto specify pvc spec for each node of sharding. You can specify any StorageClass available in your cluster with appropriate resource requests.
configServerrepresents configuration for ConfigServer component of mongodb.replicasrepresents number of replicas for configServer replicaset. Here, configServer is deployed as a replicaset of mongodb.prefixrepresents the prefix of configServer nodes.configSecretis an optional field to provide custom configuration file for configSource (i.e mongod.cnf). If specified, this file will be used as configuration file otherwise a default configuration file will be used.podTemplateis an optional configuration for pods.storageto specify pvc spec for each node of configServer. You can specify any StorageClass available in your cluster with appropriate resource requests.
mongosrepresents configuration for Mongos component of mongodb.Mongosinstances run as stateless components (deployment).replicasrepresents number of replicas ofMongosinstance. Here, Mongos is not deployed as replicaset.prefixrepresents the prefix of mongos nodes.configSecretis an optional field to provide custom configuration file for mongos (i.e mongod.cnf). If specified, this file will be used as configuration file otherwise a default configuration file will be used.podTemplateis an optional configuration for pods.
spec.keyFileSecret(optional) is a secret name that contains keyfile (a random string)againstkey.txtkey. Each mongod instances in the replica set andshardTopologyuses the contents of the keyfile as the shared password for authenticating other members in the replicaset. Only mongod instances with the correct keyfile can join the replica set. User can provide thekeyFileSecretby creating a secret with keykey.txt. See here to create the string forkeyFileSecret. IfkeyFileSecretis not given, KubeDB operator will generate akeyFileSecretitself.spec.storageEngineis set to inMemory, &spec.storageTypeto ephemeral.spec.shardTopology.(configSerer/shard).ephemeralStorageholds the emptyDir volume specifications. This storage spec will be passed to the StatefulSet created by KubeDB operator to run database pods. So, each members will have a pod of this ephemeral storage configuration.spec.hiddendenotes hidden-node spec of the deployed MongoDB CRD. There are four fields under it :spec.hidden.podTemplateholds the hidden-node podSpec.nullvalue of it, instructs kubedb operator to use the default hidden-node podTemplate.spec.hidden.configSecretis an optional field to provide custom configuration file for database (i.e mongod.cnf). If specified, this file will be used as configuration file otherwise default configuration file will be used.spec.hidden.replicasholds the number of hidden-node in the replica set.spec.hidden.storagespecifies the StorageClass of PVC dynamically allocated to store data for these hidden-nodes. This storage spec will be passed to the StatefulSet created by KubeDB operator to run database pods. So, each members will have a pod of this storage configuration. You can specify any StorageClass available in your cluster with appropriate resource requests.
KubeDB operator watches for MongoDB objects using Kubernetes api. When a MongoDB object is created, KubeDB operator will create some new StatefulSets : 1 for mongos, 1 for configServer, and 1 for each of the shard & hidden node. It creates a primary Service with the matching MongoDB object name. KubeDB operator will also create governing services for StatefulSets with the name <mongodb-name>-<node-type>-pods.
MongoDB mongo-sh-hid state,
All the types of nodes Shard, ConfigServer & Mongos are deployed as statefulset.

Please note that KubeDB operator has created a new Secret called mongo-sh-hid-auth (format: {mongodb-object-name}-auth) for storing the password for mongodb superuser. This secret contains a username key which contains the username for MongoDB superuser and a password key which contains the password for MongoDB superuser.
If you want to use custom or existing secret please specify that when creating the MongoDB object using spec.authSecret.name. While creating this secret manually, make sure the secret contains these two keys containing data username and password. For more details, please see here.
Connection Information
Hostname/address: you can use any of these
- Service:
mongo-sh-hid.demo - Pod IP: (
$ kubectl get po -n demo -l mongodb.kubedb.com/node.mongos=mongo-sh-hid-mongos -o yaml | grep podIP)
- Service:
Port:
27017Username: Run following command to get username,
$ kubectl get secrets -n demo mongo-sh-hid-auth -o jsonpath='{.data.\username}' | base64 -d rootPassword: Run the following command to get password,
$ kubectl get secrets -n demo mongo-sh-hid-auth -o jsonpath='{.data.\password}' | base64 -d 6&UiN5;qq)Tnai=7
Now, you can connect to this database through mongo-shell.
Sharded Data
In this tutorial, we will insert sharded and unsharded document, and we will see if the data actually sharded across cluster or not.

Enable sharding to collection songs.list and insert document. See sh.shardCollection(namespace, key, unique, options) for details about shardCollection command.

Run sh.status() to see whether the songs database has sharding enabled, and the primary shard for the songs database.
The Sharded Collection section sh.status.databases.<collection> provides information on the sharding details for sharded collection(s) (E.g. songs.list). For each sharded collection, the section displays the shard key, the number of chunks per shard(s), the distribution of documents across chunks, and the tag information, if any, for shard key range(s).

Now create another database where partiotioned is not applied and see how the data is stored.
mongos> use demo
switched to db demo
mongos> db.anothercollection.insert({"myfield": "ccc", "otherfield": "this is non sharded", "kube" : "db" });
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
mongos> db.anothercollection.insert({"myfield": "aaa", "more": "field" });
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
mongos> db.anothercollection.find()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("635f69c674b0bd92060ebeb8"), "myfield" : "ccc", "otherfield" : "this is non sharded", "kube" : "db" }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("635f69d574b0bd92060ebeb9"), "myfield" : "aaa", "more" : "field" }
Now, eventually sh.status()

Here, demo database is not partitioned and all collections under demo database are stored in it’s primary shard, which is shard0.

To cleanup the Kubernetes resources created by this tutorial, run:
kubectl delete -n demo mg/mongo-sh-hid
kubectl delete ns demo
