What should I do if MongoDB Atlas is down for me?

Check your connection limit and pool settings first, since exhausting connections looks exactly like the database being down. Retry with a longer timeout, because a serverless or scale-to-zero instance may simply be waking up. Confirm your credentials and IP allowlist have not changed, as an auth or firewall denial reads as a failed query. Query from another network or client to establish whether the cluster or your route to it is the problem.

Over the last 7 days, MongoDB Atlas has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~904 ms. The most recent outage began 2026-11-03 17:57 UTC and lasted 14m (severity: degraded).

MongoDB Atlas is the managed version of MongoDB, running clusters across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. Because it sits on other clouds, its incidents sometimes trace back to an underlying provider, and they tend to affect one region or cluster tier while the Atlas control plane stays available.

MongoDB Atlas is also searched for as Mongo Atlas.

Is MongoDB Atlas down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching MongoDB Atlas normally right now, and it answered our last one in 711ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.

What to do if MongoDB Atlas is down for just you

Check your connection limit and pool settings first, since exhausting connections looks exactly like the database being down.
Retry with a longer timeout, because a serverless or scale-to-zero instance may simply be waking up.
Confirm your credentials and IP allowlist have not changed, as an auth or firewall denial reads as a failed query.
Query from another network or client to establish whether the cluster or your route to it is the problem.
