ScaleGrid is a fully managed Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) platform that provides MongoDB Hosting, Redis, MySQL, and PostgreSQL hosting on public and private clouds, AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, and VMware. ScaleGrid is the only DBaaS platform that lets you host and manage your MongoDB and Redis clusters in your own AWS or Azure account, allowing you to leverage Reserved Instances to save up to 75% on long-term hosting costs. This also makes it a great platform for startups as they're able to use their free startup hosting credits to pay for their database instances. Other DBaaS providers require you to host through their Shared or Dedicated hosting plans and use On-Demand Instances which are considerably more expensive. Another great benefit of the ScaleGrid platform is that you maintain full admin access to your MongoDB, Redis, MySQL, and PostgreSQL databases, along with full SSH root access to the underlying machine. Here are some additional database management and hosting benefits you can only get at ScaleGrid:- AWS VPC and Azure VNET support- Customizable RAM, disk size, and instance type- Free 24/7 support- Free backups and data transfers- Performance debugging- Proactive monitoring- Custom replica sets- EC2 local SSD support- Included log rotations, OS patching, and database upgradesLess
