You’ve chosen the MongoDB integration. A great choice for database observability in document-oriented environments.

What you’re about to do is a hands-on learning path. You’ll configure Grafana Alloy to collect MongoDB metrics, set up secure authentication with your database, and get pre-built dashboards showing connection statistics, operation counters, replication status, and performance metrics.

We’re starting at milestone 3 since you’ve already covered the “why” of integrations and database monitoring in this course. The journey picks up with selecting your platform and installing Grafana Alloy.

Each milestone below expands to show you exactly what to do. Work through them in order, as each milestone builds on the previous one. You’ll need a MongoDB instance running and credentials with monitoring permissions.

When you’ve completed all the milestones, click Complete Path to wrap up.
