[15:20:33] <escanor> hello everyone i am unable to connect mongodb atlas using mongodb compass

[15:24:25] <escanor> Error is unable to connect host using port

[16:31:48] <macwinne_> Does anyone have a strong preference for using atlas vs mlab or some other provider?

[16:34:01] <GothAlice> In general, hosted MongoDB solutions rapidly price themselves out of all sense and sensibility. For example, storing my at-home dataset on mlab would cost me $614,000/month. That’s astoundingly atrocious.

[16:34:29] <GothAlice> Like, holy <insert tirade of expletives here>.

[16:36:42] <GothAlice> Atlas would cost $6.82/hr, only storing 1/10th of the data, a maximum allocation, or ~$5000/month.

[16:38:10] <GothAlice> I buy a Drobo iSCSI array, fill it with 4TB drives, net cost ~$12,000, once, with a trickle for replacement drives after two years. I have three arrays, with three 1U nodes, each participating in a replica set. Storing 40TiB of GridFS data.

[16:43:58] <GothAlice> I’ve been using this Drobo set of arrays since 2011 (Drobo B800i), so amortized, net cost of ~$125/month.

[20:58:01] <macwinner> GothAlice: that's pretty awesome :)

[21:21:20] <GothAlice> What's particularly awesome: it's 100% off-site backed up with Backblaze. For $5/month, flat.

[21:21:26] <GothAlice> macwinner: ^

[21:22:28] <GothAlice> ISPs setting up sales booths in the apartment complex lobby always… ask me not to take their pamphlets. Initial backup of this set (yikes, almost 8 years ago, now, at my current location) took three months of continuous upload.

[21:22:53] <GothAlice> 24/7/90.

[21:23:50] <GothAlice> Then I had residential cable. Today I have 1.5GBit fibre. It'd be a bit snappier today. ;^P
