MongoDB Atlas Data Lake
A data lake is a centralized repository that can be used to store, query, and transform heterogeneous structured and unstructured data. As the name implies, it acts as a lake of data.
MongoDB Data Lake (https://www.mongodb.com/atlas/data-lake) is a service offered by MongoDB that can help us process datasets across multiple MongoDB Atlas clusters and Amazon Web Services (AWS) Simple Storage Service (S3) buckets.
A data lake can query data in multiple formats such as JSON, BSON, comma-separated values (CSV), tab-separated values (TSV), Avro, Optimized Row Columnar (ORC), and Parquet. We can query the datasets using any driver, graphical user interface (GUI) tools such as MongoDB Compass, or the MongoDB shell using the standard MongoDB Query Language (MQL).
We can use x509 or SCRAM-SHA authentication methods. MongoDB Data Lake does not support Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
A data lake can be used for a variety of big data use cases...
