Nutanix unveils integration between platform and MongoDB product

Nutanix has unveiled a certified integration between its Nutanix Database Service (NDB) platform and MongoDB Ops Manager.

The integration combines infrastructure automation with database management, aiming to simplify MongoDB operations for customers and enabling MongoDB customers to streamline lifecycle management and data protection for large-scale, business-critical environments.

Additional capabilities of the integration include automated sharded cluster provisioning and data protection workflows through Ops Manager backup integration.

The integration has also reduced point in time recovery down to seconds, the companies claim, while NDB Time Machine snapshot-based workflows are designed to accelerate restore operations and help teams meet RTOs for business-critical MongoDB environments.

MongoDB Ops Manager provides monitoring, alerting, and operational insights across the deployment, and when combined with NDB’s infrastructure automation and visibility, teams can correlate compute/storage behaviour with database performance,.

“The integration between Nutanix Database Service and MongoDB Ops Manager delivers exactly what enterprise database teams have been asking for: seamless coordination between infrastructure and database operations,” said Ashish Mohindroo, senior vice president and general manager, Nutanix Database Service, Nutanix.

“By bringing together automated provisioning, operational visibility, and coordinated backup and recovery, customers can reduce operational friction and achieve recovery times that can be measured in minutes.”

MongoDB’s global VP of worldwide partners, Olivier Zieleniecki, said that MongoDB customers want flexibility to deploy and manage their databases across hybrid environments.

"Many enterprises are turning to Nutanix Database Service (NDB) to manage their database operations. With its certified integration for MongoDB Ops Manager, our joint customers can now standardise their operations on NDB while maintaining the deep, MongoDB-specific intelligence and capabilities their applications depend on," he said.

The integration between NDB and MongoDB Ops Manager is available today for customers with a MongoDB Enterprise Advanced license in NDB 2.10, supporting MongoDB sharded cluster deployments with Ops Manager integration.
