MongoDB Change Streams for Food Order Status

Food marketplaces update status often: placed → accepted → preparing → picked up → delivered. MongoDB change streams for food order status let the backend emit those transitions as they hit the database.

Why change streams beat naive polling

• Lower load than clients refreshing every N seconds
• Same event can fan out to admin dashboards and kitchen boards
• Easier to audit “who changed status when”

What buyers should ask

1. Are order documents the source of truth for status?
2. How do mobile clients subscribe (socket, push, both)?
3. What happens on reconnect after a driver loses network?
