Streaming Data Lakehouse Tutorial: MongoDB to Apache Iceberg
Learn how to connect MongoDB to Apache Iceberg in Iceberg table format using Estuary Flow. In this step-by-step demo, we show you how to:
1. Set up a MongoDB source and configure secure connections.
2. Create real-time pipelines to load data into Amazon S3.
3. Leverage the AWS S3 Iceberg Connector with AWS Glue for table cataloging.
Estuary Flow simplifies real-time data integration with powerful features like advanced security connections, automated materialization, and streamlined pipeline management. Whether you're handling transactional data or syncing complex data streams, Estuary Flow has you covered.
