MongoDB Atlas Data Spend â Read-only beta
Reviews cluster sizing, paused clusters, and data spend risk signals. InfraDesk never pauses, resizes, deletes, or modifies clusters.
Required access
âĸ MongoDB Atlas Programmatic API key
âĸ Organisation Read Only or Project Read Only role
âĸ Public key + Private key
Important: Atlas API keys may be restricted by API Access List (IP allowlist). If validation fails, add InfraDesk server egress IP to the Atlas API Access List, or set 0.0.0.0/0 for testing.
Decision signals
âĸ Paused cluster â still incurring storage/backup costs
âĸ Dev/test cluster on production-tier instance
âĸ Old MongoDB version â 2+ major versions behind
âĸ Single-node cluster â no replication redundancy
âĸ Large disk on small instance â storage efficiency review
Authentication
InfraDesk uses HTTP Digest Auth with Programmatic API keys (public + private key pair). Architecture is ready for Service Accounts/OAuth2 migration when MongoDB deprecates legacy API keys.
