Requires a Linux server with root access and systemd, runs over plain HTTP unless placed behind a reverse proxy.
MongoPilot is a self hosted web panel for installing and managing MongoDB databases on your own Linux server. Instead of manually installing MongoDB from the command line and editing configuration files by hand, you run a single install script and then manage everything through a browser based interface. The installer works on most major Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, RHEL, Rocky, AlmaLinux, Amazon Linux, and Fedora. It automatically detects your operating system, installs Node.js if it is missing, sets up MongoPilot as a background service, opens the correct firewall port, and prints a login URL along with a generated password. It can also be run non interactively by passing environment variables, which is useful for automated server setups. Once installed, the panel lets you browse and install different official MongoDB versions, and run several of them side by side on the same server without using Docker. Each MongoDB instance gets its own data folder, configuration file, and background service. From the panel you can turn on authentication with one click, manage users and their permissions, create or delete databases, and control which network addresses are allowed to connect using the server's built in firewall tools. There is also a live monitoring view showing CPU, memory, and disk usage for the server, plus connection counts and resource usage per database instance. For backups, MongoPilot can export a database and upload it to an Amazon S3 bucket on a schedule you set, keeping a configurable number of past backups. The panel itself currently runs over plain HTTP, so the README recommends placing it behind a reverse proxy with encryption if it will be reachable from the internet. The project is released under the MIT license.
