Atlas Architecture Center

The Atlas Architecture Center provides guidance on how to build a robust data platform in Atlas. This guidance draws from real-world best practices adopted by hundreds of large enterprises running Atlas in production.

While the Atlas documentation provides information about how to use Atlas, the Atlas Architecture Center gives recommendations on the exact configurations you should use to optimize governance, security, automation, and more.

The Atlas Architecture Center's content aligns with the Atlas Well-Architected Framework pillars:

• Operational Efficiency: Automation, monitoring, and observability that enhance efficiency.

• Security: Network settings, access control, and more to safeguard data integrity and privacy.

• Reliability: High availability, backups, and more to minimize downtime and prevent data loss.

• Performance: Built-in vertical and horizontal scaling to meet increased demand without over-provisioning.

• Cost Optimization: Visibility and cost management while maintaining performance.
