MongoDB Cloud Platform

The MongoDB Cloud Platform provides customers with an elastic, managed offering that includes automated provisioning and healing, comprehensive system monitoring, managed backup and restore, default security and other features that reduce operational complexity and increase application resiliency. The MongoDB Cloud Platform allows customers to remove themselves from the complexity of managing the database and related underlying infrastructure, so they can instead focus on the application and end-user experience. Additionally, MongoDB introduced additional enterprise functionality, such as advanced security, auditing, and compliance to support mission-critical enterprise workloads. The MongoDB Cloud Platform is available on three major cloud providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific, providing customers broad geographic coverage across more than 65 regions globally, enabling them to leverage the benefits of different cloud platforms for different use cases and helping them avoid infrastructure vendor lock-in. The organization differentiates between a service and feature. A service is what a customer subscribes to while a feature is a piece of functionality contained within a service. The current services included in the MongoDB Cloud Platform service offerings are: MongoDB Atlas, MongoDB Realm, MongoDB Charts, and MongoDB Atlas Data Lake.

Organizations who have the CSA Trusted Cloud Provider seal demonstrate a commitment to organizational security. They are a CSA Corporate Member volunteer regularly for CSA, and have at least one staff member who has earned their CCSK.
