Deploy a Federated Database Instance
On this page
This page describes how to deploy a federated database instance for accessing data in an Atlas cluster.
Required Access
To deploy a federated database instance, you must have Project Owner access to the project.
Users with Organization Owner access must add themselves as a Project Owner
to the project before deploying a federated database instance.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, you will need to:
Create a MongoDB Atlas account, if you do not have one already.
Create an Atlas Cluster, if you do not have one already. Atlas Data Federation supports Atlas clusters deployed to AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
Note
To use your Atlas cluster as a data store, you must deploy it to the same project as your federated database instance.
Add data to at least one collection on your Atlas cluster if you have not already.
