Move your MongoDB to Galaxy. Faster queries, lower bill.
Your app and database are on different networks. That's costing you money. Galaxy MongoDB runs on the same network as your app. No extra traffic charges, no hidden fees.
Galaxy MongoDB is different
Three things most providers charge extra for that Galaxy includes by default.
You're paying more than what your provider shows
External providers add egress fees, backup charges, and support surcharges on top of the base cluster cost.
Galaxy pricing is flat. One number, every month. No surprises.
Your app is slower because your database is far away
When your app and database are on different networks, every query travels over the internet and back.
Co-located app and database means sub-millisecond queries.
Backups, support, and version upgrades all cost extra
Most providers charge extra for backups, add surcharges for support, and force version upgrades on their schedule.
Galaxy includes all three. You control when to upgrade.
How Galaxy MongoDB stacks up against Atlas
Here's how Galaxy MongoDB compares to what you're paying Atlas today.
| Atlas M10 | Atlas M20 | Atlas M30 | Galaxy Starter | Galaxy Standard | Galaxy Pro | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly base price | ~$57 | ~$146 | ~$390 | $36 | $54 | $132 |
| Included storage | 10 GB | 20 GB | 40 GB | 10 GB | 15 GB | 30 GB |
| Resources | 2 GB / 2 vCPUs | 4 GB / 2 vCPUs | 8 GB / 2 vCPUs | 1 GB / 1 gCPU | 2 GB / 2 gCPUs | 4 GB / 4 gCPUs |
| Egress fees | $0.09/GB | $0.09/GB | $0.09/GB | $0 | $0 | $0 |
| Backups included | No ($0.14/GB/mo) | No ($0.14/GB/mo) | No ($0.14/GB/mo) | |||
| Support included | No (+20%) | No (+20%) | No (+20%) | |||
| Estimated monthly bill | ~$74/mo | ~$182/mo | ~$478/mo | $36/mo | $54/mo | $132/mo |
Note: Galaxy MongoDB does not yet support Atlas Search, Vector Search, or Data Federation. If you depend on those, Atlas may be the better fit today.
Not on Atlas? The same benefits apply.
If you're running MongoDB on any external provider, Galaxy eliminates network fees and puts your database next to your app. Fill out the form below and we'll build you a migration plan.
"Switching to Galaxy was a game-changer. Everything just worked from day one: faster, more stable, and stress-free. Their support is always there when we need them. We now feel confident in our infrastructure."
Felix Ingla
Pedra.ai Founder
"Having the database as part of the app is fantastic. The migration was seamless, and now our deployments are zero-downtime and incredibly easy to manage."
Michael Lee
Honoring Them Co-Founder
"I just migrated my MongoDB to Galaxy and it took me like 5 minutes. These guys handled all the heavy lifting and everything went smoothly. I basically just had to replace the connection string once the migration went live."

We'll migrate your database for you. Most take under an hour.
Fill out the form and we handle everything. Or follow these steps yourself.
Create a Galaxy MongoDB cluster in the Galaxy dashboard
Your Target URI is available right there. No support contact needed. Choose your plan and region, and the cluster is ready in seconds.
Run one Docker command with your Atlas source URI and Galaxy target URI
Run this command. It handles the full transfer. Your Atlas cluster stays untouched throughout.
Update your MONGO_URL in the Galaxy dashboard
Swap the Atlas connection string for your new Galaxy MongoDB connection string in your app's environment variables.
Redeploy and verify
Trigger a redeploy from the Galaxy dashboard. Verify that your app connects, subscriptions work, and data looks correct.
