MongoDB is now supported in Appwrite’s open-source, self-hosted version.
This integration brings Appwrite on top of a database many teams already know and trust, while keeping the same APIs, SDKs, and workflows.
Less operational overhead.
More flexibility for self-hosted teams.
What this means for you:
• Native MongoDB support in self-hosted Appwrite
• Drop-in adapter with no changes to your app code
• Familiar workflows for MongoDB-based teams
• Fully open-source and self-hosted
If your team already relies on MongoDB, getting started with Appwrite just became a lot more flexible.
