• Remember, mongoDB is case sensitive.

• You can view the databases by the command

>show dbs

• So we can see we have these many available databases along with their corresponding sizes.

• If I want to switch to some other database, then we can use the command

>use database_name

• The good thing about mongoDB is that you don’t have to explicitly create any database as we used to do in SQL.

• If you want to see the current database, then use the command

 >db
