Single MongoDB Database

Use this guide when users need one MongoDB instance with persistent storage and internal application access.

Recommended deployment mode: Single Database. This is suitable for development, staging, and modest production use cases.

Provisioning Flow

Start the Database Flow

Choose the Autonomous database deployment workflow.

Select MongoDB

Configure version, database name if applicable, credentials, storage size, and environment.

Choose a Standalone Topology

Use single-instance mode so one MongoDB stateful workload is provisioned with persistent storage.

Validate the Database

Check internal connection details, startup logs, and storage health from the dashboard.

Common User Mistakes

  • Exposing MongoDB externally without a strong need
  • Forgetting to rotate credentials in connected apps
  • Underestimating storage growth for document-heavy workloads
