Mongo DB setup and hosting

Question

I recently came across mongoDB, couchDB, etc. I hope to get a game with this type of database and wondered how much access to the hosting server I need to start.

If someone knows about this, I would like to know if it can be configured to work when your application is hosted through a “normal” hosting company.

Answer 1

I use Mongo, and so I really only speak Mongo, but your typical web hosting environment will not allow you to create your own database. You want to access the server at the root (admin) level to configure Mongo. To do this, you need something like a VPS or a dedicated server.

However, to just play around with Mongo, I would recommend downloading the binary for your OS and giving it a run. Their JavaScript shell interface is very easy to use.

Hope this helps! Tim

You can place your application and your database on different hosting servers. For MongoDB, you can use mongohq or mongolab with 0.5GB space for free
