Atlas Free clusters provide a small-scale development environment to host your data. Free clusters never expire, and provide access to a subset of Atlas features and functionality.
Paid clusters provide full access to Atlas features, configuration options, and operational capabilities. For more information on paid clusters, including deployment instructions, see Create a Cluster.
NoteYou can deploy only one Free cluster per Atlas project.
You can create Free clusters through the Atlas CLI, Atlas User Interface, and Atlas Administration API. Select the appropriate tab based on how you would like to create the Free clusters.
To create one cluster, load sample data, add your IP address to your project IP access list, and create a MongoDB user for your cluster using the Atlas CLI, run the following command:
To learn more about the command syntax and parameters, see the Atlas CLI documentation for atlas setup.
For step-by-step instructions on using this command, see Create and Configure an Atlas Cluster using the Atlas CLI.
To create a free cluster using the Atlas Administration API, send a POST
request to the clusters
