New MongoDB Plans

new mongo plans 1

Following the high demand for large-sized instances, we have created many new plans. Check these out!

Since the introduction of MongoDB in 2013, things have changed a little bit. In the beginning, a few plans were proposed for MongoDB. Then we introduced some updates and new names for the plans (remember "Peanut", "Shamrock" etc. ?). Today, we have two major updates to release.

Numerous new plans

From five plans, this is nineteen plans of managed MongoDB now available on Clever Cloud. Most of our users start with a simple "dev" plan to try things at the beginning. But as their needs are getting bigger. Jumping from a simple 1GB plan to a 100GB (when only 5GB were needed) didn't make any sense.

Now with the new migration tool, moving from a bigger instance without a heavy price jump is easier.

Encrypted databases

Now you can ask for encrypted at rest databases! The add-on file system can be encrypted using LUKS. The encryption mode is XTS, which is reputed to be more resistant to watermarking attacks.

To get your MongoDB encrypted at rest, ask the support team. A UI will be soon available to make this option automatic. Stay tuned for more add-ons! ✌️

It concerns three French companies confronted, under cover of regulatory procedures, with practices that end up weakening them. One of these examples struck me in particular, because it shows the extent to which the compliance reflex can sometimes turn against the party who believes they are doing the right thing.

A managed Kubernetes service is an offering in which the cloud provider manages the Kubernetes control plane on the user’s behalf. Provisioning, updates, availability and certificate rotation are handled by the provider. The user retains control over their workloads and node pools but does not administer the cluster’s critical infrastructure.
