Size MongoDB Enterprise Advanced on Google Cloud

Extra Small — up to 250 GB working set on a replicated operational cluster

Why this sizing

This sizing provides an extra small, non-highly available MongoDB replica set suitable for up to 250 GB working sets, deployed on three n2-standard-4 instances. The primary cost driver for this on-demand configuration is compute, at $0.08 monthly. The absence of high availability significantly reduces cost but introduces a single point of failure risk for the entire cluster.
