I’m starting with serverless framework.

I have a node application using **MongoDB**. In local development, the MongoDB server is running locally in my machine and using **mongoose** to access MongoDB.

I’m using **serverless-offline** to run the application locally and it’s working as expected.

Now I have to put the application on the server but could found a solution for MongoDB.

What could be the replacement for MongoDB in AWS? Which supports **mongoose**.

AWS has [DocumentDB](https://aws.amazon.com/documentdb/) which might help. I think you need to deploy DocumentDB inside a VPC which has implications for Lambda.
