Asked by Akinloluwa Adewale
Digital ocean occasionally recycles kubernetes pods without much warning thus changing the pods ip address. This causes issues for HelloFresh Canada as we have to manually update the list of whitelisted ip addresses within MongoDb everytime these ip’s changes

Hi there,
What I personally do is to use a managed MongoDB cluster:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/databases/mongodb/how-to/secure/
That way I can lock down the cluster using the trusted sources option and then add my Kubernetes cluster tag to the list. That way the Kubernetes cluster would be able to connect to the MongoDB cluster, and the cluster would be locked down for everyone else.
Best,
Bobby
