The database referred in the URI is used by Mongo for determining the user database against which credentials if passed needs to be validated. ------------------ /database Optional. The name of the database to authenticate if the connection string includes authentication credentials in the form of username:password@. If /database is not specified and the connection string includes credentials, the driver will authenticate to the admin database. ------------------ So far we do not make use of credentials so database field can be used. But better to manage it in a separate way. Chetan Mehrotra [1] http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/connection-string/
