License: SSPL-1.0 — SSPL is non-OSI but allows full self-host for any internal use, commercial or otherwise. The restriction is on offering MongoDB itself as a managed service to third parties.
Good fit for Apps that already use Mongo's query language and aren't redistributing the database.
Weak at SSPL is not OSI-approved; some compliance regimes treat that as a no-go.
In a terminal? npx -y github:SolvoHQ/os-alt-cli mongodb-atlas prints

Replaces these SaaS
- MongoDB Atlas · Document database (managed)
Atlas → Cluster → ... → Migrate Data → choose 'Live Migration' or `mongodump` to local. `mongorestore` into your self-hosted instance. Indexes, sharding rules, replica-set config preserved. Atlas Triggers and Atlas Search are Atlas-only — replace with change streams + a search engine.
