Enable Faster Cross-Project Restores
On this page
Atlas provides efficient cross-project restores for clusters that have Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure nodes. If you have clusters with AWS nodes created before March 27, 2024, you can enable faster cross-project restores. Atlas automatically provides efficient cross-project restores for clusters with AWS nodes created after March 27, 2024.
Considerations
The Faster Restore button appears only for Atlas clusters with AWS nodes created before March 27, 2024. This button doesn't appear for MongoDB Atlas for Government clusters.
When you enable faster cross-project restores, Atlas replaces each node in your clusters in a rolling fashion during your next maintenance window.
This replacement might take longer than the defined maintenance window.
Secondary reads and analytic nodes are unavailable during this change.
When the replacement completes, Atlas sends an email confirmation.
Procedure
In Atlas, go to the Backup details for your project.
