THE MONGODB BAAS

The Backend-as-a-Service built for MongoDB Atlas

Stop writing boilerplate CRUD endpoints. Connect your existing MongoDB cluster and instantly generate authenticated REST endpoints, Row-Level Security, and file storage.

INSTANT ENDPOINT GENERATION

From MongoDB Collection to Live API

Watch urBackend compile strict JSON validation schemas into secure REST endpoints in real time.

BRING YOUR OWN DATABASE

Your Data Stays on Your Infrastructure

Vendor lock-in is the biggest risk in modern cloud platforms. With urBackend, you retain 100% data ownership. We never hold your primary database hostage.

1

Whitelist Gateway IP Addresses

Add urBackend's outbound gateway IPs to your MongoDB Atlas Network Access IP Access List so our API nodes can establish secure TLS connections.

2

Paste Connection String

Provide your standard mongodb+srv:// URI with a dedicated database user. urBackend automatically validates read/write permissions from both internal nodes.

3

Select Collections & Enforce Schema

Map existing collections into urBackend. Choose RLS modes (public-read or private) and begin querying from TypeScript or React immediately.

Dual-Server Handshake Validation

When connecting an external MongoDB database, urBackend runs verification handshakes from both our Dashboard API and Public API gateways. Both egress IP addresses are clearly displayed in your project settings for easy Atlas allowlisting.

WHY MONGODB?

Designed Specifically for Document Flexibility

Traditional BaaS platforms are built on SQL. Here is why frontend developers prefer the document paradigm with urBackend.

Native JSON & BSON Documents

No object-relational impedance mismatch. Store objects, arrays, and nested hierarchies exactly as your frontend components consume them.

Zero Disruptive SQL Migrations

Add new fields, evolve collections, and deprecate attributes dynamically without taking your production API offline for ALTER TABLE operations.

MongoDB Query Operators Built-In

Filter with native ease: _gt, _gte, _lt, _lte, _ne, _in. Fetch nested attributes directly without constructing complex multi-table SQL joins.

Secure Client-Facing Layer

Never expose your MongoDB URI, root credentials, or database port to client applications. urBackend acts as an authenticated, RLS-enforced proxy.

Connection Pooling & Circuit Breakers

High-performance LRU connection cache protects your MongoDB Atlas cluster from connection exhaustion during traffic spikes.

Any MongoDB, Anywhere

Compatible with MongoDB Atlas (Serverless, Dedicated, Shared M0/M10+), AWS DocumentDB, DigitalOcean Managed MongoDB, and self-hosted instances.
