A complete Ansible role for MongoDB

Hi,

I’m not sure whether this is allowed, but I’d like to promote an Ansible role I developed for MongoDB, all versions. I hope this will ease the installation, configuration and management process of this application a lot for system engineers.

It’s fair to say that I’m an experienced Ansible & system user. The main functionalities of the role are.

Applies recommended production notes, e.g. numa and disables transparent hugepages
Bootstrapping a cluster in a PSA architecture (primary, secondary, arbiter)
- includes cluster verification
Secures connection by encrypting traffic via a keyfile, auto generated
Install either Community or the Enterprise edition
Supports all versions, e.g. 3.6, 4.4.
Easily to configure, with a future proof configuration method
Update playbook, supports patch releases
Add user defined users
Add user defined databases
Backup with mongodump
Logrotation, set from within mongo
Idempotent and desired state

The role can be found on my GitHub .

Welcome to the MongoDB Community Forums @Kevin_Csuka!

I moved this topic from “Ops and Admin” to “Open Source Projects”, but sharing and discussing projects using or related to MongoDB is definitely encouraged.

Regards,
Stennie

FYI: MongoDB, starting from version 6.0, for Ubuntu 22.04 can be found here: GitHub - csuka/ansible_role_mongodb_ubuntu: An Ansible role that installs, configures and manages MongoDB for Ubuntu 22.04..
