OA640: Atlas Security

Deepen your understanding of MongoDB Atlas security features and learn how to leverage the HashiCorp Terraform MongoDB Atlas Provider to automate the consistent and secure provisioning of Atlas environments using infrastructure-as-code practices.

Advanced Workshop: Atlas Security (OA640)

Overview

Your Atlas cluster is secure by default but as a MongoDB Atlas Administrator, you will be expected to configure additional security measures specific to your business requirements. You will also be required to reliably and consistently provision MongoDB Atlas Clusters with additional security pre-configured.

This course reviews and expands on the various MongoDB Atlas security features, and teaches you how to use the Hashicorp Terraform MongoDB Atlas Provider to enable consistent provisioning of secure MongoDB Atlas environments through automated tooling.

Intended Audience

This training workshop is intended for Database & System admins, Platform engineers, and SREs who will install, configure and maintain Atlas instances and clusters. Students should have completed the Atlas Admin (OFA400) and Atlas API (OFA500) courses prior to attending this workshop.

Workshop Objectives

In this training workshop, you will learn how to:

  • use Terraform to provision and configure MongoDB Atlas clusters

  • provision multi-region and multi-cloud MongoDB Atlas clusters

  • configure Network Peering and Private Endpoints for enhanced Network Security

  • prepare for Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity

  • prevent data leakage by disabling access to specific MongoDB Atlas tools

  • configure Encryption-at-Rest

  • configure Auditing for data and control plane activities

  • back up data on demand and on schedule, restore data to a point-in-time, and simulate cluster outages
