MongoDB is a life-changing technology for many developers, empowering them to build applications faster than using relational databases. However, MongoDB abandoned its Open-Source roots, changing the license to SSPL making it unusable for many Open Source and Commercial Projects. FerretDB is going to be a perfect solution for those looking for MongoDB development experience available as fully Open Source Software. The core of our solution is a stateless proxy, which converts MongoDB protocol queries to SQL, and uses PostgreSQL as a database engine. This will be compatible with MongoDB drivers, and should work as a drop-in replacement to MongoDB in many cases. Our vision is to enable the open source community and developers to reap the benefits of easy-to-use document databases, while staying away from vendor lock-in, and fauxpen licenses. We are open source advocates at heart, and we release FerretDB with an open source license recognized by the Open Source Initiative.
