1 min read
Sometimes the document model matches how you ingest events—but you still need readable aggregates.
I share aggregation pipeline patterns we use for funnels and rough cohort views, and when we push data to a warehouse instead.

- Practical
$match/$groupbuilding blocks - Index hints that keep pipelines fast enough
- When Mongo is the wrong place for BI
Next steps
If the pipeline is 200 stages, question the schema before you optimize.
