First of, nice looking website! I think you could add some pictures so people can get a better image on what is a beercrawl.

What's your go-to market strategy? Do you intend to start beercrawl around Europe major cities?

Cheers! let me know if you need any help with the setup

good luck with callstop, the landing page looks neat.

Not yet, I wanted to see if someone finds this actually useful first.

Is it possible for you to connect directly with a single database?

Thanks for compliment vngzs!

As you and more commenters pointed out, current connection to db isn't very optimal.

I added a note "Allow remote connection to MongoDB port (27017) from 165.22.32.162" while I try to come up with a better solution.

If you can share some advice/article on how VPC peering for AWS & GCP works, I'll be grateful.

That's a very good feedback, thanks. I can't believe I forgot to provide that.

I added public IP to the page where you connect MongoDB, you can try again.

thanks rafaelturk! I'll look into it. If you want you can write me on twitter and I'll let you know if I add docker support.

Fixed. Lesson learned - don't post on HN Show, when your app runs on $10/month container and db on $3.5 one

dmerks definitely agreed!

As developers can use Robo3T and write queries, the ideal customer in my mind is a smaller team/startup where developers setup metrics for marketing/product team as they need them but can't use MongoDB.

I'm not sure how to market this as developers need to do the setup, but product or marketing actually needs it.

Any advice on how to market?

Thanks bauerd! I spent more time changing landing page more than I'd prefer to, but glad to hear it was worth the effort.

If you run MongoDB on server (example AWS or DigitalOcean) you can easily connect to it with MongoDB connection string.

It's advised to run on separate server as MongoDB takes up a considerable amount of RAM and it's never a good idea to run your database service on the same server instance as your production services. I run mine on AWS lightsail for $3,5/month for now.

Will look into adding on-premise, if this gets any traction.

Needed formatted data for a side-project. Thought someone might find it useful.

Thanks for the constructive critique - fixed suggested points. It's actually a resource for another project but haven't found a recent list of brands/models.
