Deployment Architecture

I have to connect Splunk cloud to a mongoDB instance running on AWS. What is the best way to do this?

It seems like Hunk cannot be used since it is only available for Splunk Enterprise. Any work around for that? As for using Splunk DB connect, how do I specify the jdk path in the configuration settings?
