MongoDB Atlas

Integrate Spike with MongoDB Atlas to receive real-time alerts via Phone calls, SMS, Slack, MS Teams, and more for when your database triggers alerts or events.

Overview

MongoDB Atlas is a fully managed cloud database service that simplifies deployment, management, and scaling of MongoDB clusters. It continuously monitors database performance, cluster health, and operational metrics, helping you maintain reliability and efficiency across your systems.

With Spike’s integration, you can receive real-time alerts for various incidents detected by MongoDB Atlas, including:

• Cluster Alerts: Notifications when your cluster experiences performance degradation, high CPU usage, or other health issues.

• Replication and Node Failures: Alerts for primary or secondary node failures, elections, or replication lag.

• Storage and Memory Issues: Alerts when disk space, connections, or memory thresholds are breached.

• Backup or Snapshot Failures: Notifications for issues related to backups or snapshots that may affect data reliability.

This integration helps you stay on top of any issues in your MongoDB Atlas Data, allowing for immediate response and resolution.

Spike will automatically group repeated incidents and also suppress alerts while incident is open. You can set up alert rules to determine incident severity and take actions accordingly. Auto-resolution is not supported.
