+
+Overview
+--------
+
+In this guide, you can learn how to use the {+php-library+} to perform
+**aggregation operations**.
+
+Aggregation operations process data in your MongoDB collections and
+return computed results. The MongoDB Aggregation framework, which is
+part of the Query API, is modeled on the concept of data processing
+pipelines. Documents enter a pipeline that contains one or more stages,
+and this pipeline transforms the documents into an aggregated result.
+
+An aggregation operation is similar to a car factory. A car factory has
+an assembly line, which contains assembly stations with specialized
+tools to do specific jobs, like drills and welders. Raw parts enter the
+factory, and then the assembly line transforms and assembles them into a
+finished product.
+
+The **aggregation pipeline** is the assembly line, **aggregation stages** are the
+assembly stations, and **operator expressions** are the
+specialized tools.
+
+Aggregation Versus Find Operations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can use find operations to perform the following actions:
+
+- Select which documents to return
+- Select which fields to return
+- Sort the results
+
+You can use aggregation operations to perform the following actions:
+
+- Run find operations
+- Rename fields
+- Calculate fields
+- Summarize data
+- Group values
+
+Limitations
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Consider the following limitations when performing aggregation operations:
+
+- Returned documents cannot violate the
+  :manual:`BSON document size limit </reference/limits/#mongodb-limit-BSON-Document-Size>`
+  of 16 megabytes.
+- Pipeline stages have a memory limit of 100 megabytes by default. You can exceed this
+  limit by creating an options array that sets the ``allowDiskUse`` option to ``true``
+  and passing the array to the ``MongoDB\Collection::aggregate()`` method.
+
+  .. important:: $graphLookup Exception
+
+     The :manual:`$graphLookup
+     </reference/operator/aggregation/graphLookup/>` stage has a strict
+     memory limit of 100 megabytes and ignores the ``allowDiskUse`` option.
+
+.. _php-aggregation-example:
+
+Aggregation Example
+-------------------
+
+.. note::
+  
+   The examples in this guide use the ``restaurants`` collection in the ``sample_restaurants``
+   database from the :atlas:`Atlas sample datasets </sample-data>`. To learn how to create a
+   free MongoDB Atlas cluster and load the sample datasets, see the :atlas:`Get Started with Atlas
+   </getting-started>` guide.
+
+To perform an aggregation, pass an array containing the pipeline stages to
+the ``MongoDB\Collection::aggregate()`` method.
+
+The following code example produces a count of the number of bakeries in each borough
+of New York. To do so, it uses an aggregation pipeline that contains the following stages:
+
+- :manual:`$match </reference/operator/aggregation/match/>` stage to filter for documents
+  in which the ``cuisine`` field contains the value ``'Bakery'``
+
+- :manual:`$group </reference/operator/aggregation/group/>` stage to group the matching
+  documents by the ``borough`` field, accumulating a count of documents for each distinct
+  value

+
+   .. input:: /includes/aggregation.php
+      :start-after: start-match-group
+      :end-before: end-match-group
+      :language: php
+      :dedent:
+
+   .. output:: 
+      :visible: false
+
+      {"_id":"Brooklyn","count":173}
+      {"_id":"Queens","count":204}
+      {"_id":"Bronx","count":71}
+      {"_id":"Staten Island","count":20}
+      {"_id":"Missing","count":2}
+      {"_id":"Manhattan","count":221}
+
+Explain an Aggregation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To view information about how MongoDB executes your operation, you can
+instruct the MongoDB query planner to **explain** it. When MongoDB explains
+an operation, it returns **execution plans** and performance statistics.
+An execution plan is a potential way in which MongoDB can complete an operation.
+When you instruct MongoDB to explain an operation, it returns both the
+plan MongoDB executed and any rejected execution plans.
+
+To explain an aggregation operation, construct a ``MongoDB\Operation\Aggregate`` object
+and pass the database, collection, and pipeline stages as parameters. Then, pass the
+``MongoDB\Operation\Aggregate`` object to the ``MongoDB\Collection::explain()`` method.
+
+The following example instructs MongoDB to explain the aggregation operation
+from the preceding :ref:`php-aggregation-example`:
+
+.. io-code-block::
+   :copyable:
+
+   .. input:: /includes/aggregation.php
+      :start-after: start-explain
+      :end-before: end-explain
+      :language: php
+      :dedent:
+
+   .. output:: 
+      :visible: false
+
+      {"explainVersion":"2","queryPlanner":{"namespace":"sample_restaurants.restaurants",
+      "indexFilterSet":false,"parsedQuery":{"cuisine":{"$eq":"Bakery"}},"queryHash":"865F14C3",
+      "planCacheKey":"D56D6F10","optimizedPipeline":true,"maxIndexedOrSolutionsReached":false,
+      "maxIndexedAndSolutionsReached":false,"maxScansToExplodeReached":false,"winningPlan":{
+      ... }
