MongoDB Cluster-to-Cluster Sync

Supported Cluster Topologies

On this page

  • Requirements
  • Get Started

Cluster topology affects how nodes are arranged within a cluster. Topology impacts the availability and performance of your MongoDB deployment.

The topology you choose can affect how mongosync synchronizes data between clusters.

mongosync supports two cluster topologies:

  • Replica sets

  • Sharded clusters

If you are syncing a sharded cluster to another sharded cluster, they are not required to have the same number of shards.

mongosync doesn't support sync from a sharded cluster to a replica set.
