Deploy Your DocumentDB Database

DocumentDB is a self-hosted NoSQL document database compatible with the MongoDB API. When you create a capsule in the dashboard, it is presented as MongoDB Compatible.

For new MongoDB-compatible workloads, use a MongoDB Capsule instead. MongoDB Capsules are managed on MongoDB Atlas and receive more active platform support. DocumentDB Capsules remain available for existing workloads that require a self-hosted database inside your Space.

Create a DocumentDB Capsule​

  1. Click New Capsule and select MongoDB Compatible, your Team, and Space.
  2. On Plan & Deploy, choose a Plan and configure CPU, RAM, Storage, and Replicas as needed.
  3. Enter a Capsule Name and click Create Capsule.
