Interface MongoClient

All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable, Closeable

@Immutable
public interface MongoClient
extends Closeable

A client-side representation of a MongoDB cluster. Instances can represent either a standalone MongoDB instance, a replica set, or a sharded cluster. Instance of this class are responsible for maintaining an up-to-date state of the cluster, and possibly cache resources related to this, including background threads for monitoring, and connection pools.

Instance of this class serve as factories for MongoDatabase instances.
