DigitalOcean introduces scalable storage for managed MongoDB
- DigitalOcean launched scalable storage for Managed MongoDB, allowing users to adjust storage capacity without altering compute resources.
- This feature eliminates the need for costly upgrades of full database plans, providing additional cost savings.
- With these improvements, DigitalOcean enhances its service offerings to meet the evolving demands of data-intensive workloads.
On November 14, 2024, DigitalOcean Holdings, Inc. announced a significant enhancement to its cloud services in New York by introducing scalable storage for its Managed MongoDB offering. This update allows users to scale their cloud storage capacity independently from other compute resources, addressing customer needs for flexibility as data volumes increase. Previously, customers were required to upgrade their entire database plan, including unnecessary processor and memory upgrades, leading to increased costs. The new functionality, which features automated and minimal-downtime provisioning, aims to provide greater cost efficiency and ease of use. As organizations increasingly depend on data-intensive workloads, this update positions DigitalOcean competitively in the cloud services market, enabling customers to manage costs and adapt seamlessly.
