As the amount of data grows, the need for efficient data compression becomes increasingly important to save storage space, reduce I/O overhead, and improve query performance. In this blog, we will discuss both data and network-level compression offered in MongoDB. Network compression MongoDB also offers network compression.

Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. This avoids thrashing caches too much for B and evens out the pressure on the L3 caches of the machine.
