Summary

MongoDB Charts has introduced Embedding, allowing users to share charts with anyone by embedding them into web sites, blogs, and apps. This feature provides dynamic visualization of data stored in MongoDB and can be easily deployed. Users can embed charts using an `<IFRAME>` snippet or the Verified Signature option for added security. The latter requires server-side code generation of a signature using the HMAC algorithm. With Embedding, users can now share their charts with larger audiences and integrate them into specific contexts such as internal business applications.
