Percona Server for MongoDB

What Percona Server for MongoDB is

Percona Server for MongoDB is a free, source-available replacement designed to work as a drop-in alternative to MongoDB Community Edition. It supports BSON documents, transactions, and vector search, and can be deployed on Linux in self-hosted environments. Storage engines include WiredTiger and the Percona Memory Engine. Security options include encryption at rest using HashiCorp Vault or KMIP key servers, LDAP authorization, Kerberos authentication, AWS IAM authentication, audit logging, and log redaction. It also supports hot backups for replica sets. Installation options include package managers, Docker, Kubernetes, source builds, and manual downloads. The listed operating systems include RHEL, Rocky Linux, Oracle Linux, Amazon Linux 2023, and Ubuntu, among others. Percona Monitoring and Management 3.x supports versions 4.2 through 8.0. Percona says its software stack includes security and compliance features such as FIPS support. The server is released under the Server Side Public License (SSPL). Percona aligns its end-of-life dates with upstream MongoDB and does not guarantee fixes or new builds for versions that have reached end of life.
