Yeah, but how is that really supposed to work? I can see why MongoDB would want to do this, but how on earth is this really supposed to be implemented? Where do you draw the line? What I suspect is that you'll end up with a bunch of shell scripts for creating MongoDB instances...

MongoDB bets that anyone who wants to run mongo-as-a-service will ask them for a business license (instead of open sourcing their whole cloud management stuff), and they will work out a deal.
