You can subscribe to an Azure-hosted, fully-managed MongoDB database in the Azure Store. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Log into the Azure Management Portal.
2. Click New.
   
3. Select Store.
   
4. Select MongoLab. You can find us in the App Services category, as well as under All.
   
5. Click Next.
   
   The MongoLab store entry displays.
   
6. Select your desired Subscription option.
7. Enter a Name for your database. Your name can only contain alphanumeric characters, dashes, dots, and underscores. MongoLab also requires that this name be unique, so you may be asked to re-submit your request if the name is taken.
8. Select your desired Region.
9. Click Next.
   
10. Review your store purchase information, and then click Purchase to confirm.
    
11. The toolbar progress button provides your provisioning status.
    
    A success message displays when provisioning completes.
    

Congratulations! MongoLab has just provisioned a MongoDB database in the Azure region you selected. You now have access to our management UI and 24/7 support.
