Compose now offers the first fully-managed platform to safely and responsibly deploy, host and scale both MongoDB and ElasticSearch (in Beta). For developers, the ability to combine the speed and scale of MongoDB for application data with the flexible, near real-time search capabilities of ElasticSearch through a single DBaaS platform will offer a unique ability to more fully exploit the advantages of each database.
As an open-sourced structured search engine, ElasticSearch can be leveraged for a wide range of uses, including user-defined, flexible queries across a range of attributes and powerful full text search.
Compose seeks to deliver the most easy and cost-effective way for developers to host and scale new databases. Unlike platforms that require you to anticipate how much space you’ll require, Compose asks users to pay only for the data they actually use, and starts at $18/GB per month for MongoDB, and $54 per month for the first 2GB for ElasticSearch, then $18/GB per month as it grows.
