  1. Return private endpoints for peered network from mongo-db prometheus discovery endpoint

    We are using VPC peering to connect with Mongo Atlas. With the recent account about, prometheus integration. We added scrape config to mongo-db discovery API. However, scraping times out. Upon checking further it is found that discovery API returns public endpoints not private ones. Hence connection is failing. Is there a way that discovery API can send private endpoints.

  2. Vault Lock to protect Atlas Cloud Backups

    We are currently looking for a solution to secure our Atlas backups.

    Something similar to AWS Glacier Vault Lock [1] or a simple grace period before backups are deleted once and for all would be nice.

    It would be amazing to protect the Atlas backups from being deleted.
    Currently, if one of our Atlas admins was compromised, the damage for the company would be enormously high. So we need to implement measures against the final deletion of our most mission critical data.

    Hello,

    I am pleased to announce that we have released our backup feature called Backup Compliance Policy, that protects your backups from being deleted by any user, ensuring WORM and full immutability (can not be edited/modified or deleted) for backups automatically in Atlas.


    Backup Compliance Policy allows organizations to configure a project-level policy to prevent the deletion of backups before a predefined period, guarantee all clusters have backup enabled, ensure that all clusters have a minimum backup retention and schedule policy in place, and more.


    With these controls, you can more easily satisfy data protection requirements (e.g., AppJ, DORA, immutable / WORM backups, etc.) without the need for manual processes.


    Please note that the Backup Compliance Policy can not be disabled without MongoDB support once enabled so please make sure to read our documentation thoroughly before enabling.

  3. Add autoExport snapshot to AWS S3 Bucket on mongodbatlas_cloud_backup_schedule

    By company policy, we have to export our snapshots automatically to an AWS S3 Bucket.

    I started following https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/backup/cloud-backup/export/ and implemented on terraform due to the high number of projects, and clusters that we need to backup.

    However, looks like the terraform provider doesn't support "autoExportEnabled" from https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api/cloud-backup/schedule/modify-one-schedule/ on https://registry.terraform.io/providers/mongodb/mongodbatlas/latest/docs/resources/cloud_backup_schedule terraform resource.

    Best regards,
    Wagner Sartori Junior

  6. Add resource to allow attachment of roles to mongodbatlas_cloud_provider_access

    The need to do two applies to completely configure the mongodbatlas_cloud_provider_access resource should have never seen the light of day. I would like to see an additional resource that could attach a role to a mongodbatlas_cloud_provider_access after it has been created. Then you could use the attributes in the mongodbatlas_cloud_provider_access resource to create the role, then attach the role to it using the access_role_attachment resource.

  7. Alert when a snapshot restore succeeds/fails

    Simply send an email alert when a restore finishes (or errors).

    This is important for us because we run a restore (from prod to qa) every weekend and it takes over 14 hours. If it fails, we need to know so we can quickly kick it off again before Monday. Otherwise the QA team will be dead in the water.

  8. Send alert when there are performance advisor recommendations

    I would like to have an alert setting when MongoDB Atlas's performance advisor has any recommendations.

    Currently there is no way to determine if the performance advisor has a suggested improvement on the main project console page.

    Our prod project has a lot of clusters(with more planned). It is cumbersome to go in and check each one manually.

    We released Performance Advisor alerts on Week of Aug 7. It is available as a default alert.

  9. immutable backups

    currently Atlas - MongoDB backup are stated to be immutable, however, that is not true because there is no object lock on the s3 bucket.

    We would like to request adding the option to have an object lock on the s3 bucket that our snapshots are located on which will make sure that the snapshots can only be deleted by retention and not modified or deleted by anyone else. This is to line up with WORM compliance while dealing with financial data.

  11. Add Prometheus as a Supported Third-Party Integration Settings type

    Great work releasing the new Prometheus Integration functionality!

    Ideally, we'd like to use Terraform to codify our interface with the Prometheus Integration, similar to how we leverage the existing Third-Party Integration Settings types.

  13. Create Organization using API or terraform in Atlas

    I support multiple business units (BU) within our company. Each BU uses multiple applications & teams. In order to offer service in Atlas, through automation, there is no option in Atlas to create/ delete Organization dynamically. It allows managing Projects and below.

    It will be good to add this feature to create/ delete Organization dynamically.

    It will also be good to manage, ie to create different Accounts dynamically (like AWS/GCP).

    This will help to have separate account & organization, for each BU to manage billing and manage the consumption, through automation.

    Thanks

  14. Atlas API Enhancements

    Since we want to automate the user (de)provisioning for organizations and projects, we would like to see the following API enhancements:

    Please enhance the Mongo Atlas API for the following functionalities:
    - invite (existing mongo) user to organization (currently not possible)
    - remove user from organization
    - get invitation status from user
    - cancel invitation for user

    Thank you

  16. Expose minRetentionHours oplog option

    MongoDB 4.4 introduces the new minRetentionHours for the oplog.
    Currently this option is not exposed in the Atlas UI and the command replSetResizeOplog is not allowed.
    Would be nice to have this option available in Atlas (and be accessible via Terraform too)

  18. atlas portal ip whitelist

    We were given this idea from a security audit.

    From a security-in-depth perspective we would like to be able to restrict logins on the atlas portal to only whitelisted IP's, this would be analog as to how API whitelisting works at the organization level.
    This is to prevent login's other than from our permitted sites.

  19. Allow backup download through PrivateLink

    We need the ability to download our backups via PrivateLink connection. Our clusters aren't reachable via VPC peering as we solely use PrivateLink. The existing download capability doesn't support a PrivateLink URL to download our backups through.

    For Atlas clusters hosted on AWS and Azure with private endpoints configured, Atlas now enables you to download the snapshot via the private endpoints within the same region as the snapshot via both the UI and Admin API.


    Documentation can be found here.

  20. killop

    I have read the other two suggestions on providing more killOp() and read Andrew's comment on the difficulties in the medium term.

    I just watched a situation where a primary became unresponsive and the queues piled up. The solution was to cause an election, but the dba wanted to kill operations by user (the application user) and couldn't.

    It would be nice to have something more than the real-time panel, which in this situation had become unresponsive as well so it was no use, such as a DBA console where an authorized dba could kill operations started by other users.
