Percona Backup for MongoDB (PBM) 2.13.0 now supports Workload Identity Federation (WIF) when authenticating with Google Cloud Storage (GCS).
With WIF, you can upload backups to GCS without relying on long-lived service account JSON keys. PBM authenticates using short-lived tokens obtained through federation with an external identity provider (IdP).
Workload Identity Federation lets on-premises or multicloud workloads access Google Cloud resources using federated identities instead of a service account key, eliminating the maintenance and security burden of service account keys.

Percona Backup for MongoDB already supports selective backups of databases and collections. Now, the selective backup can also include users and roles defined within the database. This ensures that access control is restored along with the data.
