Amazon DocumentDB now offers one-click connectivity with CloudShell

Starting today, you can connect to your Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) clusters with a single click through AWS CloudShell directly from the AWS Management Console. This new feature allows our customers to easily connect to their DocumentDB clusters directly from their browser, without requiring any local setup.

One-click connectivity with Cloudshell automatically configures VPCs, security groups, and MongoDB shell installation, eliminating the need for manual tasks like setting up security groups and ingress/egress rules. This streamlines the process for database administrators and developers, enabling them to connect quickly to their DocumentDB cluster to preview data or execute adhoc queries.

This feature is available in all AWS Regions where both Amazon DocumentDB and AWS CloudShell services are supported. For more information about region availability, see the AWS Region table. To get started, follow Get started with Amazon DocumentDB to create an Amazon DocumentDB cluster, then click the "Connect to cluster" button to connect via CloudShell.
