With MongoDB you don’t need an extra step to predeclare the schema to “set up” collections. The document-oriented nature of MongoDB actually does not enforce a strict schema; documents within a collection may have different fields as needed. It’s a different concept to get used to, but the collection will be created as soon as you start saving data to it.

Indexes can be added using pymongo’s ensureIndex on a collection.

Similar to the collection creation on data insertion, a collection will also be created if it does not exist when an index is added.
