Atlas architecture decisions — sound familiar?
- ▸ Atlas Global Cluster decision stalled — EU customers need data residency, but Global Cluster requires zone definitions and write-region selection your team hasn't modeled. Decision has cycled for weeks.
- ▸ Atlas Search vs Lucene-direct — Costing it both ways — Atlas Search included in M30+ vs running OpenSearch separately. Latency vs operational-burden trade-off unclear without an architecture review.
- ▸ Vector Search architecture — Need RAG / semantic search; can Atlas Vector Search at M30 handle the embedding volume, or do you need a dedicated vector DB? Nobody's benchmarked your specific workload.

Advisory Areas
What Atlas consulting covers
M-tier Sizing & Auto-scaling
Right-size each Atlas cluster against workload, configure auto-scaling thresholds, model M-tier upgrades against growth trajectory.
Atlas Search Architecture

Atlas Vector Search
knnBeta sizing, hybrid search architecture, RAG-pipeline chunking strategy, alternative-stack comparison (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector).
Global Cluster Topology
Multi-region zone definitions, write-region selection, read-preference patterns, data-residency compliance mapping.
Networking & Security
AWS PrivateLink vs IP-allowlist, Atlas SSO + Federation, encryption with customer KMS, audit log routing to S3/CloudWatch.
Cost Modeling
Atlas bill audit, M-tier vs Serverless trade-off, Atlas Search included-vs-paid breakdown, multi-region replication cost.
