Migrate from ObjectRocket to cosmos mongoDB

Robert Campbell 1

I have an old MongoDB that was in object rocket. I have a TGZ file they gave me. What is the best way to import it to cosmos?

Hi, @Robert Campbell Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform, and thanks for your query.
As we understand you want to copy from MongoDB to Azure Cosmos DB correct me if my understanding is wrong.
Can you please provide more information on TGZ is this a format?
Did you try checking these documents? Tutorial: Migrate MongoDB to Azure Cosmos DB's and Copy data from or to MongoDB

You are correct.

TGZ is a type of Gzip file.

I have looked at the docs you shared. When I unzip it its a Tar file of all the bson files of each database.

Hi @Robert Campbell bson files (binary files) are generally exported using mongodump and need to be imported using mongorestore

Please check this document for more details

Let me know if you need any additional information.
