Installation

Installing Percona Server for MongoDB

Percona announces the release of Percona Server for MongoDB 3.6.8-2.0 on October 31, 2018. Download the latest version from the Percona website or the Percona Software Repositories.

Percona Server for MongoDB is an enhanced, open source, and highly-scalable database that is a fully-compatible, drop-in replacement for MongoDB 3.6 Community Edition. It supports MongoDB 3.6 protocols and drivers.

Percona Server for MongoDB extends Community Edition functionality by including the Percona Memory Engine storage engine, as well as several enterprise-grade features. Also, it includes MongoRocks storage engine, which is now deprecated. Percona Server for MongoDB requires no changes to MongoDB applications or code.

This release introduces data at rest encryption for the WiredTiger storage engine. Data at rest encryption for WiredTiger in Percona Server for MongoDB is compatible with the upstream implementation. In this release of Percona Server for MongoDB, this feature is of BETA quality and should not be used in a production environment.

Note that Percona Server for MongoDB 3.6.8-2.0 is based on MongoDB 3.6.8 which is distributed under the GNU AGPLv3 license. Subsequent releases of Percona Server for MongoDB will change its license to SSPL (Server Side Public License) when we move to the SSPL codebase released by MongoDB. For more information, see Percona Statement on MongoDB Community Server License Change.

This release also contains a fix for bug PSMDB-238

Known Issues

  • PSMDB-233: When starting Percona Server for MongoDB 3.6 with WiredTiger encryption options but using a different storage engine, the server starts normally and produces no warnings that these options are ignored.

  • PSMDB-239: WiredTiger encryption is not disabled with using the Percona Memory Engine storage engine.

  • PSMDB-245: KeyDB’s WiredTiger logs are not properly rotated without restarting the server.
