They probably mean that they wanted the DB hosted within the private subnet of their VPC. With a traditional hosted offering you’d connect over the public net to a system hosted by the SaaS provider. With RDS they could spin up the DB within their own VPC.

Couldn't they do this by using Atlas and choosing AWS as the host?
Atlas runs tne hosts inside mongodbs AWS account, we have the same restriant, becuase of client privacy isses and gdpr compliance we can let a 3rd party host the data, amazon is ok beacuse we control tbe data on tbe instances.
Client privacy issues should not preclude the use of MongoDB Atlas... Atlas offers encryption of data at rest as well as the ability to manage your own keys.
