At a glance
MongoDB here, in four lines.
What it is, what we install, what management covers and what it needs. The rest of this page is detail.
- What it is
- MongoDB is the document database: JSON-shaped data, flexible schemas, and horizontal-scale ergonomics, the default persistence layer for a decade of Node and mobile backends.
- What we install
- The playbook deploys the current MongoDB Community Server from the official repository with authentication enabled from the start, bound to localhost by default, WiredTiger cache sized to the plan, and scheduled mongodump beside the block-level backups.
- What managed covers
- Version and server updates, daily snapshots plus optional Dual Backups with dump-level restores, monitoring on memory, connections, and disk, and the managed firewall deciding what, if anything, reaches 27017.
- What it needs
- 2 GB RAM
Fits on SC-2GB, from $6.67/mo. Bigger sizes leave room for the apps you stack beside it.
Your options
Three ways to run MongoDB.
Installing MongoDB is the easy part. The real question is who keeps it running.
| Do it yourselfOn any unmanaged VPS | One-click imageAt most clouds | RemarkableCloudManaged MongoDB, from $6.67/mo | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Installing MongoDB | You: dependencies, database, HTTPS | Preinstalled once, then it is yours | Deployed by a tested playbook, database and HTTPS wired |
| Updates | You | You | Us, with a snapshot first |
| Monitoring and security | You | You | Us, 24/7: monitoring, firewall and IDS |
| Backups | You | Usually a paid add-on | Daily snapshots included, Dual Backups optional |
| Other apps on the server | Yours to wire up | One app per server | As many as fit, $0 each |
| When something breaks | You fix it | You fix it | Our engineers fix it, day or night |
Built for
What people run on MongoDB here.
On your own server, using it more never costs more.
Document-model applications
Node and Python apps that think in JSON store it natively, without Atlas pricing tiers.
Event and log data
Flexible schemas absorb evolving payloads; TTL indexes expire old data automatically.
Prototypes that ship
Start schemaless, ship fast, harden with validation later, all on the same server.
Leaving Atlas bills behind
The same MongoDB Community engine, flat server pricing, your data on your disk.
Stack it
MongoDB works better with company.
Everything here can run on the same server as MongoDB, at $0 per app. The server only needs the room.
Pick your server
Choose the size. MongoDB is $0.
MongoDB needs 2 GB. Bigger servers leave room for the apps you stack beside it. Every size is fully managed, and you can resize in minutes.

The details
MongoDB here, in plain words.
Straight answers to what people ask before they choose where to run it.
What does managed MongoDB hosting include?
A secured, correctly sized Mongo with real backups and watched monitoring at flat server pricing. Notably: authentication on and internet exposure off by default, which is the configuration that keeps databases out of the news.
How does this compare to Atlas?
Atlas is excellent and priced like it, per cluster, per storage, per transfer. A single-node Mongo on a managed server covers the vast majority of applications at a flat price, with the application allowed to live on the same machine, one hop from its data.
Is single-node MongoDB production-safe?
With honest expectations, yes: daily snapshots plus optional Dual Backups plus dumps protect the data, and monitoring protects the service. What a single node does not give you is zero-downtime failover; if you need a replica set, that is a conversation we can actually have.
Can Mongo share the server with the app?
That is the recommended shape: API and database on one managed server, localhost latency, one bill. Add Redis for caching and Uptime Kuma for monitoring from the same catalog at $0.
FAQ
MongoDB hosting, answered.
Still deciding? These are the questions we hear most.
How much RAM does MongoDB need?
2 GB is the practical floor; WiredTiger wants real cache. Large working sets scale up from there, and the sizing calculator counts it with your app.
Which version do you install?
The current Community Server GA from MongoDB's own repository, updated as part of management with snapshots before version steps.
Is my Mongo exposed to the internet?
Not unless you ask: localhost binding and mandatory auth are the default, and remote access is opened per-address through the managed firewall with TLS.
Is authentication enabled by default?
Yes. The install ships with access control on and a generated admin user, bound privately. The public internet never sees an open MongoDB here.
Does it need a lot of RAM?
WiredTiger likes memory for its cache. 2 GB runs real workloads; growing datasets are a resize away, no migration involved.
Is this MongoDB on a VPS or on shared hosting?
A VPS. MongoDB runs on your own private virtual server with dedicated, non-oversold resources and its own IP. You get real isolation and performance, with the setup, TLS and hardening handled for you.
Can I run other apps on the same server?
Yes. Add any other catalog app to this server from your client area, one click each, no per-app charge. How much fits is a question of RAM, and resizing is minutes.
Can you help me move my existing data over?
Yes, migration help is free. Open a ticket with access to the current setup and we move it, verify it, and hand it back running. Nothing switches until you approve.
Can I upgrade or downgrade the plan later?
Anytime. Plans resize from the client area in minutes, annual billing keeps its flat 17% discount at every size, and there is never a fee to change tiers.
MongoDB runs. You sleep.
