Bucketing Pattern

Inserting Data

This is how we would have been storing the data...


          
db.readings.insertOne({
  sensor: "Temp Sensor 456",
  ts: new Date(),
  value: 45
})

But with bucketing, we change it to...


          
db.readings.updateOne({
  sensor: "Temp Sensor 456",
  ts: new Date().setSecond(0, 0).setMinute(0),
}, {
  $push: {
    values: {
      ts: new Date(),
      value: 45
    }
  }
}, {upsert: true});
