Angular 2 and MongoDB, How can I use it?

[Sykes Creatives]

I want to implement a NoSQL type database for my web apps. I was using Firebase but im not a fan of the restrictions and cant really afford the premium version of it at the moment, so MongoDB was my next coice. Seeing that MongoDB is based on NodeSQL is it possible to have a db hosted along side my app? How would I go about implementing that?

Hi Sykes,

Yes that is possible. Iirc, mongo even has a direct rest interface you can hook up to the web. However, this is a very high risk. I would never hook up any DB directly to the web. Put in a server in between so you have control over the access to the DB. 

Have a look at the mean stack, you can solve it in a similar way.

here is a very simple app I wrote that uses MongoDb with express.js in the middle
