            <title>[DOCS-8526] Add FAQ item around MongoDB Atlas and Parse</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-8526</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Question&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Can MongoDB Atlas be used as a MongoDB back-end for Parse?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Answer&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
There are two primary contexts in which Parse is run: the (now deprecated) hosted Parse platform, and the &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/ParsePlatform/parse-server&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;&quot;Parse Server&quot;&lt;/a&gt; self-managed option. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;MongoDB Atlas is not an ideal back-end for pre-existing mobile apps that are pointing to the Facebook-hosted (deprecated) Parse system through api.parse.com for a few reasons&lt;br/&gt;
1. MongoDB 3.2 is not officially supported as a migration endpoint (though it&#8217;s no longer blocked)&lt;br/&gt;
2. MongoDB Atlas does not offer the failIndexKeyTooLong capability, and&lt;br/&gt;
3. The hosted Parse migration service does not support migration to a MongoDB cluster that authenticates against the &apos;admin&apos; database.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, MongoDB Atlas is a good back-end for Parse Server deployments (mobile applications that do not go through api.parse.com).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This means that for net new applications, or applications where a Parse developer pushes out a new mobile app version that points to a Parse stack and back-end cluster distinct from their hosted version (aka distinct from their customers on the old mobile app version), then MongoDB Atlas will be OK because in that paradigm a user is expected to manage their own indexes, and the Parse standalone server has been tested against 3.2 by the community.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

The hosted Parse migration service does not support migration to a MongoDB cluster that authenticates against the &apos;admin&apos; database.&quot; is &lt;b&gt;no longer true&lt;/b&gt; so hosted Parse can indeed migrate directly to atlas (we&apos;re really at the tail end but it would be nice to update this folks in case people are looking for last minute migration options)&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="1476929" author="ravind.kumar" created="Sat, 14 Jan 2017 15:58:15 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=andrew.davidson&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;andrew.davidson&quot;&gt;andrew.davidson&lt;/a&gt; are the steps at &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/building-a-new-parse-server-and-mongodb-atlas-based-application&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;this blogpost&lt;/a&gt; accurate?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It seems like this QA should have two primary points:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Atlas may work for apps using the now-deprecated hosted PARSE platform. As 3.2 is not an officially-tested migration destination, users should carefully test and ensure 3.2 does not introduce any performance regressions in their workload, and that application functionality is unimpaired.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Atlas works for self-hosted PARSE servers as is, and instructions are found at the blog post.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

I&apos;ve successfully migrated in a micro test. It does not look like the other issues are blockers&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
