Kubernetes-ready automation


Deploy highly available MongoDB in Kubernetes with automated Day 1 and Day 2 operations without tooling fragmentation.

Better visibility into performance


Use MongoDB-specific dashboards and query analytics to pinpoint slow queries, index issues, and resource bottlenecks.

Expert help for performance and resilience

Get hands-on support for tuning, upgrades, migrations, architecture, and incident response, so MongoDB stays fast, stable, and recoverable.

“Percona provided a strong alternative to the highly expensive license option BBVA had used previously. While we believe and rely on MongoDB as a technology, we decided to choose Percona as we could get more control over our database strategy. We reduced our cost, got better control over our future strategy, and improved results.”

Real Answers. No Corporate Doublespeak.

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

Percona offers a production-ready alternative to MongoDB Enterprise Advanced and Atlas through enterprise-grade MongoDB software and services—without licensing fees, platform lock-in, or forced cloud dependency. Percona software enhances MongoDB Community Edition with enterprise capabilities while preserving full deployment flexibility.

Yes. Percona Server for MongoDB is a fully compatible, drop-in replacement for MongoDB Community Edition. Applications, drivers, and existing tooling continue to work without code or configuration changes, making migration straightforward.

Percona for MongoDB gives teams control over where and how MongoDB runs—on-premises, in the cloud, hybrid, or on Kubernetes—without being tied to a managed cloud platform. Unlike MongoDB Atlas, Percona avoids consumption-based pricing, cloud restrictions, and proprietary operational dependencies

Yes. Percona provides Kubernetes-native automation for MongoDB through the Percona Operator for MongoDB. It supports Day 1 and Day 2 operations including deployment, scaling, upgrades, backups, restores, and high availability for production MongoDB clusters.

Percona Backup for MongoDB delivers enterprise-grade physical backups, restores, and point-in-time recovery (PITR) for replica sets and sharded clusters. It is fully open source and designed for consistent recovery across complex MongoDB deployments.

Yes. Percona supports migrations from MongoDB Enterprise Advanced and Atlas via open source Percona ClusterSync for MongoDB tool, including guidance on architecture, data movement, Kubernetes transitions, and operational standardization. Migrations are designed to minimize disruption and preserve application compatibility.

Percona Server for MongoDB is released under the Server Side Public License (SSPL), consistent with upstream MongoDB licensing. For components derived from SSPL-licensed code, Percona adopts the same license. For software developed independently by Percona—such as Percona Backup for MongoDB and Percona ClusterSync for MongoDB—we continue to use true open source licenses.
