● Central US (Iowa)
● East US (Virginia)
● East US 2 (Virginia)
● North Central US (Illinois)
● South Central US (Texas)
● West US (California)

11. Cloud Managed MongoDB on GCP
Under the hood
● MongoDB Atlas is currently available in 4 GCP regions:
● us-east1 (South Carolina)
● us-central1 (Iowa)
● europe-west1 (Belgium)
● asia-east1 (Taiwan)
12. Highly Available by Default
Under the hood
● A minimum of three data nodes per replica set/shard
are automatically deployed across availability zones for
high availability
● If your primary node does go down for any reason, the
self healing recovery process in MongoDB Atlas will
typically occur in under 2 seconds
13. High Performance
Under the hood
● WiredTiger storage engine with compression and fine-grained
concurrency control to meet the most demanding SLAs
● MongoDB Atlas supports automatic-sharding, giving you the ability to
scale up or out with no impact to your app
● MongoDB Atlas allows you to pick the shard key that best suits your
application needs
● All MongoDB Atlas clusters are single-tenant and deployed on
servers allocated specifically to the cluster
● Workload isolation with up to seven replicas of your data to
concurrently run operational and analytical workloads across the
same database, without any resource contention
15. Data Explorer
Interact with your data from within the MongoDB Atlas UI.
The Data Explorer is a convenient way to:
• Run queries
• See metadata about your databases & collections
• View information about your indexes, including index usage
statistics
18. Continuous Backup / Point-in-time Restore
MongoDB Atlas Backups
● MongoDB Atlas continuously backs up your data, ensuring your
backups are typically just a few seconds behind the operational system
● Point-in-time backup of replica sets and consistent, cluster-wide
snapshots of sharded clusters. With MongoDB Atlas, you can easily
and safely restore to precisely the moment you need
● Compression and block-level deduplication technology keeps your
backup processes as efficient as possible
● Backups are securely stored in North America or Ireland*. For more
location flexibility of your backup data, you can utilize MongoDB’s
mongodump / mongorestore tools
*Additional regions for backup coming soon
19. Queryable Backups
MongoDB Atlas Backups
MongoDB Atlas gives you the ability to query your backup
snapshots and restore data at the document level in minutes.
Queryable backups significantly reduces the operational
overhead associated with:
• Identifying whether data of interest has been alerted
• Pinpointing the best point in time to restore a database by
comparing data across multiple snapshots
22. The Latest MongoDB Features
Under the hood
● MongoDB Atlas comes out-of-the-box with MongoDB 3.2 and
MongoDB 3.4 available. When maintenance releases become
available, MongoDB Atlas will automatically upgrade your cluster, using
a rolling process to maintain cluster availability at all times
● When new versions of MongoDB are released, MongoDB Atlas will also
allow you to make seamless upgrades without risking downtime
