Licensing Policy

Our goal in selecting the Server Side Public License (SSPL) v1.0, a license introduced by MongoDB, as our license is to require that enhancements to MongoDB be released to the community. We also make our drivers available under the Apache License v2.0.

If use of the database under the SSPL v1.0 does not satisfy your organization’s legal department, commercial licenses are available with MongoDB Enterprise Advanced. Feel free to contact us for more details.
