I installed mongodb for learning purpose, the problem I am facing is that it starts on system boot and consume resources even if not being used. I want it to be removed from system boot, how can I do this?

If you are using a recent version of ubuntu, you probably need to follow the instructions for systemd on how to "disable" a service: askubuntu.com/questions/19320/… ; you can also "mask" a service if you want to completely disable the service. If you "disable" a service it will not automatically start at boot time. If you "mask" a service, it will not be able to be started and will be completely disabled.

I can't test it at the moment, but I think this should work
sudo update-rc.d mongodb disable
If this is not enough try this
sudo update-rc.d -f mongodb remove

@davelupt's reference is great. However I guess the command should be
echo manual | sudo tee /etc/init/mongod.override
since the file for MongoDB under /etc/init is mongod.conf.

@davelupt's reference is great. However I guess the command should be
echo manual | sudo tee /etc/init/mongod.override
since the file for MongoDB under /etc/init is mongod.conf.
