# Use environment variable as password (could also be a password stored in a file, read with cat)
# DO NOT use --password argument in mongodump command or authentication will fail
# DO NOT add a file name after --archive argument, or mongodump output won't be sent to stdout
# Use S3 infrequent access storage class to reduce cost
# Use aes-256 encryption of your file on S3 (or your own KMS keys)

# Benefits of this method :
# 1 > You won't see the password sent to mongodump using in ps command (it's safe in a multi-user environment)
# 2 > You don't have to store the backup locally before sending it to S3
# 3 > Everything is done in one line, fits a cronjob easily
