Our notes

Choosing Atlas M0 Free

Who it suits

Learning MongoDB, following a tutorial or building a prototype. It gives you a real Atlas cluster with a three-node replica set and no bill, but MongoDB itself says it is not meant for production.

Compared with other MongoDB Atlas plans

M0 has 512 MB of storage on shared CPU and memory. The next step, Flex, raises storage tenfold to 5 GB and bills by usage from about $8 a month, never more than $30. The dedicated M10 cluster starts after that.

Before you sign up

512 MB fills quickly with logs, images stored as documents or unindexed test data, so keep large files out of the database. Shared resources mean speed can vary. Move to Flex or a dedicated tier before launching anything users depend on.
