I am trying MongoDB with a dataset about the company profile margin for learning purpose. Here is the sample document
{
"parent_comp" : 1
"child_comp" : 101
"profit" : NumberLong(70320020)
}
I have created two indexes i.e one on child_comp field and the other one is a compound index with parent_comp, child_comp, and last_outage_timestamp.
For the below query, I executed the explain command to see the query plan.
MongoDB Enterprise > db.data.find({ "$and" : [{ "parent_comp" : 951, "child_comp" : 9351, "profit" : { "$gte" : { "$numberLong" : "500000000" } } }, { "profit" : { "$lte" : { "$numberLong" : "1000000000" } } }] }).sort({"profit" : 1}).limit(3).explain();

As you can see winning plan used single index instead of compound index. So could you please let me know why compound index was not used.
