MongoDB editions

 MongoDB has three editions: community server, enterprise server, and atlas.

 

1) MongoDB Community Server

The MongoDB Community Edition is free and available on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

MongoDB Community Edition uses the Server-Side Public License (SSPL). It means that if you offer MongoDB as a service to the public, you need to open the source code of the software that makes the service works e.g., administration and monitoring tools. Otherwise, you need to pay for the enterprise subscription.

If you use the MongoDB Community Edition as a component of your application, not the final product, you are free to use it.

 

2) MongoDB Enterprise Server

MongoDB Enterprise Server is a commercial edition of MongoDB as a part of the MongoDB Enterprise Advanced subscription.

 

3) MongoDB Atlas

MongoDB Atlas is a global cloud database service. It is a database as a service that allows you to focus on building apps rather than spending time managing the databases.

MongoDB Atlas is available on common cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and GCP. MongoDB Atlas has a free tier for your experiments.
