I’m having trouble understanding what the Atlas integration does in Vercel. I saw a post from a Mongo employee stating it is a “Native” integration; but on the surface it just seems like it provisions some users in Atlas then adds some Vercel environment variables.
Is there anything happening from a technical standpoint? Is it supposed to handle connection pooling with the serverless-nature of Vercel or something?
Thank you
Hi Hyun Seo,
At this time, the Atlas Integration with Vercel is a partner integration that makes it easy to get started using an Atlas cluster as the database for one or many projects in Vercel. Especially for new Atlas users, it speeds up the process of creating an account, organization, project, cluster, security setup, a Vercel-specific database user, and then saving the credentials for that users securely in the chosen Vercel project(s).
Best,
Justin
I don’t know if it makes life easier. I’m trying to set up the integration right now while I’m writing, and it hasn’t finished. The first attempt took ages to complete, but it didn’t finish. I don’t know if there is any other way to connect Vercel and Atlas.
Hi Alex, thanks for raising this! I just did a quick test of this integration, and it appeared to be online and functioning as expected. I will reach out via direct message to obtain more information from you so we can reproduce and solve the problem you’re facing.
Best,
Jesse
