Why MongoDB is a deal breaker?

[thangngoc89]

Because MongoDB's license change disallowed cloud service provider to host MongoDB. This reduces the competition and *probably* making MongoDB more expensive than says PostgreSQL. Which I can find a hosted solution anywhere I host my VPS.

There are a few alternatives to Novu - Courier, Knock, Engagespot, SuprSend

Wait what? Hosted or you host on your VPS there is a major difference.

Or do you mean you host yourself now and want to be able to move to a hosted solution (or the other way around)

Aws documentDB is compatible with MongoDB

[maxloh]

It is compatible with MongoDB v4.0 only. The latest version is 6.0.7.

You're a ~years out of date on both numbers :P

[redwood]

That is not an accurate interpretation of the SSPL. You can build any software you want on top of it... the key is you can't deliver it itself as a public cloud service, that's all

[from-nibly]

That's what they were saying. They are saying that aws not being able to offer a hosted version is the bad thing they don't like.
