MongoDB supports SQL queries. Tableau has an MongoDB connector. You can connect MongoDB to Excel via our DataAPI and of course our Cloud platform provides embeddable charts.
Only the DataAPI is a relatively recent addition. The rest are very mature features.
Problem with mongo is if you start using more SQL like things like pipelines and aggregations your perf goes out the window
you really have to think about how you structure your data in mongo for it to work with lots of queries since joins are untenable (even if aggregations support them)
Depending on exact specifications that is like $10k of hardware, so 4 days of rent pays the machine in full.
So in this service the actual cost of the hardware is a rounding error. It also needs power, cooling, a roof and some maintenance crew, but that still doesn't come close to the rental price. So what are customers actually paying for?
