>how to enable data at rest encryption in percona mongodb 8.0

You can encrypt the data files using a Master encryption key. The key can be local or managed by an external key server like Hashicorp vault etc. For example, to use local key management:

# Create a key file
$ openssl rand -base64 32 > mongodb-keyfile
$ chmod 600 mongodb-keyfile

# use it to encrypt data files while starting the database
$ mongod --enableEncryption --encryptionKeyFile mongodb-keyfile ...<other options>...

You can set it via environmental variables while deploying the Docker container as follows:

$ docker run -d --name container-name \
       -e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=mongoadminuser \
       -e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=secretpwd \
       percona/percona-server-mongodb:tag

$ docker exec -it container-name \
       mongo -u mongoadminuser \
                    -p secretpwd \
                    --authenticationDatabase admin

For docker compose, you can pass as environment parameters like shown in below example:

services:
  mongodb:
      environment:
        MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME: {ROOT_USERNAME}
        MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD: {ROOT_PASSWORD}

Hope this helps you!
