Real Answers. No Corporate Doublespeak.

Clear, direct answers about our software, support, licensing, and how things actually work in production.

Percona adds features like LDAP authentication and authorization, auditing, log redaction, data-at-rest encryption, and more. Please see our feature comparison for more details.

Our general policy is that we try to match our end-of-life dates for platforms to those of the upstream vendor. For software Percona produces based on upstream software, we match the upstream software’s end-of-life dates.
In the same manner, as a platform or piece of software becomes outdated or is declared “end of life (EOL),” we move our engineering efforts to developing the next major release or addressing the next important piece of open source software. EOL software gets shifted back to Operational Support, and finally (as it is largely phased out in the broader ecosystem), to Community Support.

Due to the full compatibility with MongoDB Community version, you can simply replace it by installing Percona Server for MongoDB. If you want assistance with migration and guarding against unexpected downtime and unplanned data loss, contact our Percona Experts.

Percona Server for MongoDB is built upon MongoDB Community Edition. Therefore, Percona Server for MongoDB is a fully compatible source-available replacement for MongoDB Community, which is also fully compatible with your current infrastructure.
