Solution

  • It does. The main features in Enterprise Edition which are not available in Community Edition are these:

    • In-Memory Storage Engine
    • Auditing
    • Kerberos Authentication
    • LDAP Proxy Authentication and LDAP Authorization
    • Encryption at Rest

    See https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/administration/upgrade-community-to-enterprise/

    There are a few more functions in Enterprise, but they are minor.
