MongoDB provides sample data you can load into your deployments. You can use this data to quickly get started experimenting with data in MongoDB and using tools such as the Atlas UI and MongoDB Charts.
Available Sample Datasets
The following table shows the sample datasets available. Click a sample dataset to learn more about it.
For instructions on loading this sample data into your deployment , see Load Sample Data Into Atlas.
Sample Data Namespaces
When you load the sample data, MongoDB creates the following namespaces on your deployment:
Warning
If any of these namespaces already exist on your cluster when you attempt to load the sample data, the operation will fail and no sample data will be loaded into your cluster.
Tutorials Using Sample Data
Atlas Tutorials
The Get Started tutorial walks through setting up an Atlas cluster and populating that cluster with sample data.
MongoDB Charts Tutorials
The following MongoDB Charts tutorials guide you through visualizing sample data provided by Atlas:
- Visualizing Order Data
- Visualize the Sample Supply Store Dataset, which contains sales order data from a mock office supply company.
- Visualizing Movie Details
- Visualize the Sample Mflix Dataset, which contains data on movies and movie theaters.
Tip
To visualize data in MongoDB Charts from the Atlas UI, click Visualize Your Data when viewing a specific database or collection. Charts loads the data source and you can start building a chart in the Charts view. For detailed steps, see Build Charts.
