To convert an SQL database to MongoDB, you can follow these steps:

  1. Export the SQL database data: Use tools or scripts to export the data from your SQL database tables into a format that can be imported into MongoDB. This may involve converting the data into JSON or CSV files.
  2. Set up MongoDB: Install MongoDB on your system and create a new database for the converted data.
  3. Import data into MongoDB: Use MongoDB import tools or scripts to import the data from the exported files into MongoDB collections.
  4. Create indexes: If your SQL database had indexes, you may need to create similar indexes in MongoDB to ensure efficient querying.
  5. Test and verify: Once the data is imported, you should test and verify that the conversion was successful. Check that the data is accurate and similar queries run efficiently in MongoDB.
  6. Adjust applications: If your applications were interacting directly with the SQL database, you may need to modify them to interact with the MongoDB database instead.
  7. Monitor and optimize: Monitor the performance of the MongoDB database and optimize it as needed to ensure it meets your requirements.


Remember that the conversion process may vary depending on the complexity of your SQL database schema and data. It is recommended to thoroughly plan and test the conversion process before making it live in a production environment.
