UMongo is a desktop client developed to browse and administer MongoDB installations. Earlier versions of the project were known as JMongoBrowser. Its interface exposes database objects and management operations through a navigable tree rather than requiring every task to be expressed as a shell command.
The application could connect to individual servers, replica sets and router instances. It supported routine document and collection editing, index administration, data transfer and selected cluster-management operations. Background execution was used to avoid blocking the graphical interface when commands took time to complete.
UMongo also allowed administrators to inspect server statistics and replication information. Its graphical document builder offered an alternative to manually composing document structures, while import and export operations supported several common data formats.
This is free and open source software.
