OEM Certification is achieved through a 2-step consultative process.
The Design Review is an optional but recommended consultation during the early stages of development to review a broad set of design considerations, including:
Basic “macroarchitecture” design analysis
Compliance with security guidelines
Data access patterns
Design and strategy for capturing and managing external / third party data

During Verification, MongoDB consulting engineers will verify that your application is in compliance with our OEM Certification Guidelines (get in touch for a copy of those guidelines). This engagement does not guarantee certification; if your application is not in compliance, it will not be certified. This engagement should occur shortly before your application is ready to be rolled out, once development is mostly or entirely completed.
In addition, our engineer will also review the processes you have put in place for production, and any advanced MongoDB operational capabilities you plan to use.
