What's the best place to host MongoDB?

Hello LowEndTalk community. I'm looking for the best place to host MongoDB. I prefer a managed service. If not managed, at least an option to upgrade easily with/without an autoscaling feature. It should be priced optimally (non-expensive)

Atlas is expensive I feel @nghialele
Its a managed service.
If you seek reliability as data is important, it may be worth shelling extra for it.
Good luck
I was totally going to sarcastically comment mongodb.com
There isn't a "cheap" managed MongoDB provider. DigitalOcean would be the cheapest I guess, but even then. If you look for something cheap, you should selfhost it on a VPS or something. Get 3 yearly deals on BF or any flashsale and install a little cluster, that's cheap.
Dont know atlas works really well even if its on the pricier side. But its very reliable
That should be the bare minimum for every managed service, that's one of the reason they are managed ^^
I've found one that's cheaper than Atlas but I want to know the services you guys know. Also, completely managed isn't the required. I just need easy updates and support in case of issues.
Thing is, if your DB goes down then everything else is fucked. The DB should be the most managed part of your infrastructure.
Pick your poison
Realistically you can start with any provider that suits your wallet
But take precautions and plan for what if the service/ provider goes down?
If you do not plan for Disaster recovery then you may be out of luck when shit really hits the fan.
Regardless of a managed service or otherwise, if data is important have multiple copies available and updated/ tested
Good luck
See this (it's dedicated instances btw):
Good luck.
Like i said before start with something that you like and ensure you have alternatives planned out.
