I have one mongo db hosted in AWS atlas account and my application is running in AWS EC2 instance. I want to access my DB using my application by VPC peering but it always ask for username password which i think is not a good practice because for this i need to hardcode dummy credentials in properties file.

Is there any way I can do this without using dummy credentials. Can I do this using private endpoint? Please suggest best practice used in industry for mongodb atlas.

Authentication is orthogonal to your network topology (VPC).

Authentication in Atlas is required. You can try using x.509 or aws authentication instead of passwords.
