How does MongoDB cluster work?

In contrast to a single-server MongoDB database, a MongoDB cluster allows a MongoDB database to either horizontally scale across many servers with sharding, or to replicate data ensuring high availability with MongoDB replica sets, therefore enhancing the overall performance and reliability of the MongoDB cluster.

How to access MongoDB over HTTP?

By default, MongoDB starts at port 27017. But you can access it in a web browser not at that port, rather, at a port number 1000 more than the port at which MongoDB is started. So if you point your browser to http://localhost:28017, you can see MongoDB web interface.
