About Amazon DocumentDB

Amazon DocumentDB is a fully managed document database service from AWS. It stores and queries JSON-like documents and offers a MongoDB-compatible API, so applications written for MongoDB drivers and tools can often use it with little change.

AWS runs the infrastructure, and the service page describes it as serverless and fully managed, so teams do not provision or patch servers themselves. It is integrated with the rest of AWS for networking, security and monitoring, and fits applications that already run on AWS and need a document store.

DocumentDB is a proprietary AWS service and cannot be self-hosted. Costs follow AWS pricing, which is described on the service's pricing page.
