1 No support for two phase commit transactions.
2 Atomicity and transactions
3 Max document size: 16 MB ( Using gridfs. It allows to store documents in chunks. Here's the link:
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/gridfs/)
4 Max document nesting level: 100
5 Namespace is limited to ~123 chars
6 DB name is limited to 64 char
7 Default .ns file can store about 24000 namespaces
8 If you index some field, that field can’t contain more than 1024 bytes
9 Max 64 indexes per collection
10 Max 31 fields in a compound index
11 Fulltext search and geo indexes are mutually exclusive (you can’t use both in the same query)
12 If you set a limit of documents in a capped collection, this limit can’t be more than 2**32. Otherwise, number of documents is unlimited.
13 Max 12 nodes in a replica set Replica sets are the preferred replication mechanism in MongoDB. However, if your deployment requires more than 12 nodes, you must use master/slave replication.
14 Max 7 voting nodes in a replica set A replica set can have up to 12 members, but can have at most only 7 voting members. If you need more than 7 members in one replica set, set votes to 0 for the additional non-voting members.
15 You can’t automatically rollback more than 300 MB of data. If you have more than this, manual intervention is needed.
16 group command doesn’t work in sharded cluster.
17 db.eval() doesn’t work on sharded collections. Works on unsharded, though
18 $isolated, $snapshot, geoSearch don’t work in a sharded cluster.
19 You can’t refer db object in $where functions.
20 If you want to shard a collection, it must be smaller than 256 GB, or else it will likely fail to shard.
21 Individual (not multi) updates/removes in a sharded cluster must include shard key. Multi versions of these commands may not include shard key.
22 Max 512 bytes for shard key values
23 You can’t change shard key for a collection once it’s sharded.
24 You can’t change value of a shard key of a document.
25 aggregate/$sort produces error if sorting takes more than 10 percent of RAM
26 You can’t use $or in 2d geo queries
27 You better not use queries with multiple $in parts. If this results in more than 4 million combinations - you get error.
28 Database names are case-sensitive (even on case-insensitive file systems)
29 Forbidden characters in database names: linux - /. “, windows - /. “*<>:|?
30 Forbidden characters in collection names: $ sign, “system.” prefix
31 Forbidden characters in field names: .$
32 Hashed index can’t be unique
33 Max connection number is hardcoded to 20k.
34 here are some restrictions, like the allowed characters in object field names.
35 Read/write lock is currently global level
36 No joins across collections
37 No referential integrity support
38 Map / Reduce and aggregation are single-threaded. To be more specific, one per mongod process.
39 12-node limit to the replica-set strategy
40 The 32 bit version of MongoDB is also considered deprecated because it can only handle 2 Gb of data
41
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/limits/
42 Starting from version 2.6, MongoDB will not create an index if the value of existing index field exceeds the index key limit.
