Time-series data: When not to use Time-Series Collections - 014

MongoDB Time-Series collection kothaga vachindi kada ani prathi dantlo vadestunnara? Konni sarlu old Bucket pattern eh better."

Core Explanation: Native Time-Series collections are great for IoT, sensors (High write, Append only). Kani meeku frequent ga data update avtunte, leda delete avtunte, leda complex secondary indexes kavali ante... Time-Series collection limitations unnay. Adi columnar format lo store chestundi, so random updates are costly.

Wrong Practice: Using Time-Series on data that changes a lot.

// Stock Ticker (Good) -> Only inserts
// User Session History with updates (Bad) -> Updates happen

Best Practice: Know the limits. High frequency INSERT ONLY? -> Time-Series Collection. Updates/Deletes involved? -> Standard Collection with Bucket Pattern.

Closing Insight: "Shiny new features are good, but check the 'Limitations' page first."
