Insights
The introduction of scalable storage for Managed MongoDB marks a significant operational improvement, addressing a key limitation in DigitalOcean's database service offering. Previously, customers had to upgrade their entire database plan to increase storage, leading to unnecessary compute costs. This decoupling of storage from compute resources represents a strategic shift towards more flexible, cost-effective cloud infrastructure management.
The impact on DigitalOcean's competitive position is notable, as this feature brings their MongoDB offering more in line with industry standards. This could help retain price-sensitive customers who might otherwise migrate to larger cloud providers. The focus on cost optimization and operational efficiency should particularly appeal to small and medium-sized businesses, which form DigitalOcean's core customer base.
This feature enhancement addresses a critical pain point in database management - the ability to scale storage independently of compute resources. For organizations dealing with data-intensive applications, especially those involving AI workloads, this granular control over resources can result in significant cost savings and improved operational efficiency. The minimal-downtime provisioning is particularly valuable for maintaining high availability during scaling operations.
The certification and collaboration with MongoDB adds credibility to the offering and ensures compatibility with MongoDB's best practices. This positions DigitalOcean to better compete in the growing database-as-a-service market, particularly for customers requiring flexible scaling options for data-intensive applications.
Customers can now scale database storage independently, enabling cost optimizations
DigitalOcean’s Managed MongoDB is a fully managed database-as-a-service certified by MongoDB, built in close collaboration with MongoDB, and operated by DigitalOcean. Prior to this update, customers who needed to add storage capacity to their managed databases were required to upgrade the whole database plan, including processor and memory. By making it possible to scale storage capacity independently, customers benefit from greater flexibility and unlock cost efficiencies as they scale their applications.
“For many of our customers’ workloads, it’s not practical or cost-effective to upgrade an entire database plan in order to keep up with growing data,” said Darpan Dinker, VP of AI/ML and PaaS at DigitalOcean. “Scalable storage for DigitalOcean’s Managed MongoDB gives customers greater flexibility and control to right size their MongoDB storage with a simple click of a button. Upgrades are provisioned automatically with minimal downtime, resulting in simple, adaptable scaling.”
This new offering provides users with:
- Independent Scaling: Unique ability to scale Managed MongoDB storage separately from compute resources.
- Cost Efficiency: Granular billing helps ensure customers only pay for the storage they use, reducing unnecessary expenses.
- Ease of Use: Automated, minimal-downtime provisioning of added storage along with a simple, transparent pricing model enhances the customer experience while optimizing costs.
“As organizations take advantage of increasingly data-intensive workloads like generative AI, it’s of paramount importance that they can scale their data infrastructure seamlessly, maintain exceptional performance, and control costs,” said Annick Bangos, Senior Director of Partner OEM at MongoDB. “With scalable storage for DigitalOcean’s Managed MongoDB, customers can enjoy the high flexibility and performance that MongoDB is known for, and focus on innovating with peace of mind.”
