Open Source vs. Proprietary Database Software: What To Choose?

Percona

APRIL 28, 2023

We are a company of open source proponents. We’re also dedicated and active participants in the global open source community. Both open source and proprietary options have advantages. With open source database software , anyone in the general public can access the source code, read it, and modify it.

AUGUST 1, 2023

Because of its NoSQL origin and document architecture design, MongoDB is much more flexible and scalable than SQL databases such as MySQL. If you are using the open-source Percona Distribution for MongoDB , you also have extra features such as LDAP authentication support, which is present in the Enterprise and Atlas MongoDB versions.
