- Definition
- “An HA shard is a two-node compute billing unit that consists of a primary and a standby.” It is “an Atlas Infinite billing unit only, and is distinct from a MongoDB shard”. (Atlas Infinite Cluster Costs)
- Counting rules
- Atlas meters compute hourly “based on the configured cluster tier of the HA shards and any additional nodes”, independently of storage, and bills compute for provisioned nodes even when the cluster is idle.
- Floors / minimums
- No published minimum beyond the two-node HA shard itself. Public preview supports M10 to M60 General and M40 to M60 Low-CPU replica sets (Atlas Infinite Overview).
