I don't think you can, Vapor only supports Amazon RDS, which doesn't include mongo as far as I know! https://aws.amazon.com/rds/

Laravel Vapor with mongoDB
While testing my existing app on Laravel Vapor I have discovered that https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb package used in my app is throwing an error since there is no mongoDB extension installed in Vapor's environment. Did you guys encountered this issue? How did you solve it? Did you find alternatives?

Thanks for the reply. I am using mongoDB atlas (external service), the package by jenssegers throws an error since it relies on php extension for mongodb

Why aren't or why dont you use Amazon DocumentDB.

I believe it still needs to be used together with the package mentioned earlier, and no additional PHP extensions (mongodb) on Vapot yet...

Can you use Laravel Vapor with Mongo yet? I’m trying to get this up and running.

Since my question was ignored for some time now I have found alternative to the Vapor that solved this problem for me (free)
Give it a try.

@nedstrk The size of the runtime Vapor uses is limited since the runtime + your project must not exceed 250MB. So we're very picky about the extensions we include out of the box.
MongoDB is not supported in the Laravel Core so we don't see a big need for it to be included in the runtime and would just add extra precious megabytes. You can however compile your own runtime and use it with Vapor if you want.
