Availability: Single instance database cluster with a small cube template availability.
Security: Communication between instances and between the client and the database cluster is protected with Transport Layer Security (TLS) using Let's Encrypt.
Resources: Cluster instances are dedicated Servers, with a dedicated CPU, storage, and RAM.
Backup: Backups are disabled for this edition. You need to upgrade to MongoDB Business or MongoDB Enterprise to avail database backup capabilities.
High availability: Multi-instance database clusters across different physical hosts with automatic data replication and failure handling.
Security: Communication between instances and between the client and the database cluster is protected with Transport Layer Security (TLS) using Let's Encrypt.
Management: Efficient monitoring and management are essential for maintaining the health and performance of MongoDB deployments. IONOS MongoDB Business Edition includes powerful monitoring and management tools to simplify these tasks. The MongoDB management enables centralized monitoring, proactive alerts, and automated backups, allowing businesses to efficiently monitor their clusters and safeguard their data.
Resources: Cluster instances are dedicated Servers, with a dedicated CPU, storage, and RAM. All data is stored on high-performance directly attached NVMe devices and encrypted at rest.
Backup: Daily snapshots are kept for up to seven days.
Restore: Databases can be restored from snapshots.
Shards: Supports horizontal scalability through MongoDB sharding, which allows for data to be distributed across multiple servers. For an example of how to create a sharded cluster, see Create a Sharded Database Cluster.
Resources: Cluster instances are Virtual Servers with a boot and a data volume attached. The data volume is encrypted at rest.
BI Connector: The MongoDB Connector for BI allows you to query MongoDB data with SQL using tools such as Tableau, Power BI, and Excel. For an example of how to create a cluster with a BI Connector, see Enable the BI Connector.
Network: Clusters can only be accessed via private LANs.
High availability: Multi-instance clusters across different physical hosts with automatic data replication and failure handling.
Security: Communication between instances and between the client and the cluster is protected with Transport Layer Security (TLS) using Let's Encrypt.
Backup: Daily snapshots are kept for up to seven days.
Restore: Databases can be restored from a specific snapshot given by its ID or restored from a point in time given by a timestamp.
Offsite Backup: Backup data is stored in a location other than the deployed database cluster.
Enterprise Support: With MongoDB Enterprise, you gain access to professional support from the MongoDB team ensuring that you receive timely assistance and expert guidance when needed. IONOS offers enterprise-grade Service Level Agreements (SLAs), guaranteeing rapid response times and 24/7 support to address any critical issues that may arise.
Note: IONOS Cloud does not allow full access to the MongoDB cluster. For example, due to security reasons, you cannot use all roles and need to create users via the IONOS API.
