Best recommendation for Backup strategies for mongoDB on AWS

Ops and Admin
1

Hello Everyone,

I would like to gather information about the best backup strategies for our MongoDB instances hosted on AWS. We currently have a replication strategy with three nodes and are taking backups from one of the secondary replicas. Our master node contains over 1,000 databases.

At present, we are performing daily backups through Ops Manager, but this approach is impacting database performance. To mitigate these issues, I would appreciate it if you could share best practices and strategies that align with MongoDB standards.

Thank you!

Ops Manager Continuous Backup should not be having a detrimental impact on the cluster. I recommend opening a support case with MongoDB.
