MongoDB

MongoDB is a document-oriented NoSQL database designed for high-volume data storage. It organizes data using collections and documents rather than tables and rows.

Getting Started

Requirements

To integrate MongoDB as a source, you'll need:

1. MongoDB User Access

   • A MongoDB user with read access to:
     • The target database
     • The local database

2. SSH Details

   • SSH access details (if using an SSH tunnel server)
   • A private key for secure connections

3. IP Whitelisting

   • Visit our IP Whitelisting Guide for whitelisting IPs and CIDR ranges to ensure secure access to your database or service.

4. MongoDB Configuration

   • For CDC to function smoothly, it's vital to have the appropriate MongoDB configuration. For a detailed guide, refer to the MongoDB Configuration documentation.
