Creating backend infrastructure traditionally means hours or days of setup. Configuring servers, databases, authentication, APIs, monitoring... it's a lot of work before you write your first line of application code.
RESTHeart Cloud makes provisioning instant. Free services? One click. Shared services? Real-time after payment. Dedicated? Typically a few hours.
Free Services: Instant
Free tier provisioning is as fast as it gets.
The Experience
The process couldn't be simpler. Click "Get Started" on the Free tier, name your service, and you're done. Your service is ready.
Total time: Less than a minute.
You get a complete backend immediately. Your live API endpoint is ready to accept requests. A MongoDB database is configured and waiting. Authentication is set up and working. The Admin JWT is available for initial setup. Monitoring is active and tracking your service health.
Start making API calls immediately. No waiting, no configuration, no deployment scripts.
Perfect For Getting Started
The instant free tier is perfect when you want to test an idea right now without any delay. Starting a tutorial immediately means you can learn by doing. Showing a demo to a client is possible without advance preparation. Prototyping during a meeting becomes practical. Learning RESTHeart Cloud hands-on gives you immediate feedback on your work.
No credit card. No approval. No waiting. Just click and build.
Shared Services: Real-Time After Payment
Shared services provision just as fast, activating right after your payment is processed.
The Flow
The process is streamlined and automated. Choose the Shared tier from the service creation screen. Complete payment via Stripe's secure checkout. The service provisions automatically once payment confirms. Start using your service immediately.
Total time: Payment processing + ~30 seconds
The moment your payment confirms, provisioning begins. Within seconds, your production-ready backend is live and accepting requests.
What You Get Instantly
Your Shared service comes fully configured from the moment it launches. You have 1 GB of MongoDB storage ready for your data. Rate limits are set to 6,000 requests per minute, providing 20 times the capacity of the Free tier. Automated backups are enabled and running on schedule. Brute-force protection is active, guarding against attacks. Email support is activated, giving you access to our support team. Marketplace plugins are available for instant activation.
No manual configuration needed. No "please wait for our team to set up your account" delays. Just pay and build.
Production-Ready Immediately
This isn't a trial or a demo environment. Your Shared service is production infrastructure from day one. Full SLA coverage protects your uptime. Automated backups are running to protect your data. Monitoring is active and alerting on any issues. Our support team is notified and ready to help. Your invoice is generated automatically for accounting purposes.
Deploy your application to production the same day you create your service.
Dedicated Services: Personal Touch
Dedicated services involve custom infrastructure, so they require a bit more time, but typically just a few hours rather than days or weeks.
The Process
Getting started with a Dedicated service begins with communication. Contact us at support@restheart.com and tell us your requirements. We'll need to know your preferred AWS region for deployment. If you're using your own MongoDB, provide connection details. Tell us about custom domain needs and any special requirements. We'll provision your dedicated container based on these specifications. You receive complete configuration details once setup is complete.
Total time: Typically 2-4 hours during business hours
Why Personal Contact?
Dedicated services are customized to your needs, which makes personal communication valuable. For region selection, we deploy to any AWS region worldwide and configure infrastructure in your chosen location. When using your own MongoDB cluster, we configure the connection securely and test thoroughly to ensure reliability. For custom domains, we set up DNS configuration and SSL certificates for your domain. When you have special requirements like specific rate limits, custom backup schedules, or compliance needs, we configure everything right from the start.
Enterprise-Grade Setup
When we provision your Dedicated service, we handle every detail professionally. We create isolated infrastructure dedicated to your application. Monitoring and alerting are configured to catch issues early. Automated backups are set up according to your requirements. All endpoints are tested to ensure they're working correctly. Security configuration is verified against best practices. Complete documentation is provided for your reference.
You get white-glove service because your application is important.
Provisioning Speed Comparison
Understanding the provisioning timeline for each tier helps you choose the right option for your timeline.
Free Tier provisioning takes less than a minute with a simple click-and-go process. It's available 24/7 whenever you need it, making it perfect for immediate experimentation.
Shared Tier provisioning happens in real-time after payment, taking approximately 30 seconds. The pay-and-provision process is fully automated and available 24/7, making it best for fast production deployment.
Dedicated Tier provisioning typically takes 2-4 hours and involves contacting our team for custom setup. This happens during business hours and is best for enterprise requirements that need careful configuration.
Multiple Services
You can provision multiple services to support different environments and use cases. The Free tier allows up to 2 services, plus 2 additional services per paid service. Shared and Dedicated tiers have no limits - provision as many as you need.
Common patterns include using a Free service for development alongside a Shared service for production. Another approach uses a Free service for development, a Shared service for staging, and a Dedicated service for production. Some organizations deploy multiple production services in different regions using Dedicated tiers for global coverage.
The Developer Experience
The contrast with traditional backend setup is striking. Traditional approaches consume significant time. Day 1 involves choosing a cloud provider and setting up an account. Day 2 brings configuring database, networking, and security. Day 3 requires setting up an authentication system. Day 4 is spent building the API layer. Day 5 brings configuring monitoring. Week 2 is devoted to debugging deployment issues. Week 3 finally arrives when you can write application code.
With RESTHeart Cloud, the timeline compresses dramatically. Minute 1: Click "Get Started". Minute 2: Service provisioned. Minute 3: First API call succeeds. Minute 5: Authentication working. Minute 10: Building features that matter.
