To deploy GB in AWS, what mongodb service do you recommend? 1. mongodb as a pod in EKS? 2. mongodb atlas - full managed service 3. AWS documentdb, another managed service 4 other options. I’m curious to hear your thoughts

The type of data we are storing aligned well to document stores - and since we are rapidly iterating, the nosql gives us more flexibility to do updates without needing to do sql alters. We did write the code in a way where we can change the back end db - and we have plans to support other dbs.

Make a lot of sense to me, one alternative is PostgreSQL in my mind

AWS dynamodb support would be fantastic for us
