Wouldn't this be more of a Mongo driver feature? |

This is a nice feature from MongoDB. I already created a PoC for a few customers on Galaxy for them to be able to run multiple regions using the same domain, this is possible without new features in Galaxy using services like Route 53 where you can map different CNAME records for different source regions. But I always mention to customers that the database would still be a problem as they would probably need a single database somewhere at least in the cases where the applications share data world wide, this wouldn't be a big deal for application that are multi-tenant and each tenant is always using from a specific region. Now with this feature from MongoDB this single database problem would be solved. I believe the point of this discussion, sorry if I misunderstood @RobertLowe, is to think about the places where Meteor core packages handle the data for developers, like accounts, to see how many changes we would need to do to support this use-case. Am I right? A follow up question to you @RobertLowe, are you trying to use this MongoDB feature right now in your app or this discussion here is more to talk about the impact? It would be nice to have someone implementing this with Meteor and MongoDB because we would have a real case to battle test this scenario. I'll keep my eyes open for tickets in this direction from Galaxy customers. |

It would be great if Meteor/Galaxy could take advantage of Data Residency.
Atlas introduced "Global Clusters" which allow you to specify where you would like data to reside. https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/global-clusters/
