Summary

Introducing the MongoDB Atlas Data API, Now Available in Preview The MongoDB Atlas Data API is a fully managed, REST-like API for accessing Atlas data, allowing developers to perform CRUD and aggregations on their data in minutes. It provides scalable, highly available, and secure access to the data layer without the need for drivers or custom-built APIs. The API unlocks developer productivity for use cases like building data-centric microservices and integrating with third-party services, while still leveraging the efficiency of Atlas as the underlying database. With its ease of setup and support for aggregation pipelines, the Data API is designed to accelerate and simplify how developers leverage their application data. As a preview release, it will be followed by additional features and long-term support, including services like Data Lake and Serverless Instances.
