## What it is
A Kubernetes operator written in Go that deploys and manages MongoDB Community Edition inside Kubernetes clusters. This repository is deprecated in favor of mongodb/mongodb-kubernetes, with best-effort support only until November 2025.

## Use cases
- run mongodb community in kubernetes
- deploy mongodb replica sets with a kubernetes operator
- manage mongodb database users via kubernetes crds
- self-host mongodb on a kubernetes cluster
- automate mongodb deployment and upgrades in k8s

## When to choose
- you need to run MongoDB Community Edition on Kubernetes today and cannot migrate yet
- you want declarative, CRD-based management of MongoDB deployments and users

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use mongodb/mongodb-kubernetes instead
- you need Enterprise features such as backup - use the MongoDB Enterprise Kubernetes Operator
- you need long-term support beyond November 2025
