The Azure Cosmos DB Linux emulator with API for MongoDB support provides a local environment that emulates the Azure Cosmos DB service for development purposes on Linux and macOS. Using the emulator, you can develop and test your MongoDB applications locally, without creating an Azure subscription or incurring any costs. When you are satisfied with how your application is working in the Azure Cosmos DB emulator, you can switch to using an Azure Cosmos DB account in the cloud.
