Overview

ThemisDB offers both a Community Edition (free and open source) and an Enterprise Edition with advanced features for large-scale deployments.

Community Edition vs Enterprise Edition

✅ Community Edition (Free & Open Source)

The Community Edition includes all core database functionality:

  • ACID Transactions with MVCC (Multi-Version Concurrency Control)
  • Multi-Model Storage (Relational, Document, Graph, Vector)
  • RocksDB Storage Engine with LSM-Tree architecture
  • Secondary Indexes (Range, Composite, Spatial)
  • Graph Traversals (BFS, Dijkstra, shortest path)
  • Vector Search (HNSW, FAISS integration)
  • GPU Acceleration (CUDA, Vulkan, HIP, DirectX - single GPU)
  • Time-Series Support with Gorilla compression
  • AQL Query Language (FOR/FILTER/SORT/LIMIT/RETURN)
  • TLS 1.2+ Encryption and password authentication
  • Backup & Recovery via RocksDB checkpoints
  • Change Data Capture (CDC)
  • REST API and GraphQL
  • Prometheus Metrics for basic observability

Limits:

  • Single-node deployment only
  • Maximum 8 worker threads
  • Single GPU support only
  • No distributed features

💎 Enterprise Edition (Commercial License)

The Enterprise Edition adds advanced features for production deployments:

1. Horizontal Scalability & Distribution

  • VCC-URN/PKI Sharding - Multi-node horizontal scaling

  • Batch Operations - High-throughput bulk processing
  • Advanced Monitoring - Grafana dashboards, alerting
  • Kubernetes Operator - Cloud-native deployments

Obtaining Enterprise Edition

Enterprise Source Code

The enterprise source code is not included in the public GitHub repository. This follows industry best practices used by GitLab, MongoDB, and other commercial open-source projects.

Why Separate Distribution?

  1. Protects Intellectual Property - Enterprise features represent significant R&D investment
  2. License Compliance - Ensures only licensed customers access enterprise code
  3. Professional Support - Customers receive dedicated support and updates
  4. Quality Assurance - Enterprise releases undergo additional testing and validation

Distribution Methods

For Licensed Customers:

Option 1: Enterprise Source Package (Recommended)

# Receive enterprise source as versioned package
themisdb-enterprise-v1.3.0.tar.gz

# Extract and integrate with community edition
tar -xzf themisdb-enterprise-v1.3.0.tar.gz
cp -r themisdb-enterprise-v1.3.0/src/enterprise ThemisDB/src/
cp -r themisdb-enterprise-v1.3.0/include/enterprise ThemisDB/include/

Option 2: Private Repository Access

  • Access to private ThemisDB-Enterprise repository
  • Pull updates via git
  • Version controlled integration

Option 3: Binary Distribution

  • Pre-compiled enterprise DLLs
  • Fastest deployment
  • No build required

How to Obtain Access

  1. Contact Sales: Email sales@themisdb.com or visit https://themisdb.com/enterprise
  2. License Agreement: Sign a commercial license agreement
  3. Access Grant: Receive access credentials and enterprise package
  4. Integration Support: Follow provided integration documentation
  5. Ongoing Support: Access enterprise support portal and updates

Pricing Tiers

  • Reseller Edition: For embedding in commercial applications
  • Enterprise Edition: For large-scale deployments (4-100 nodes)
  • Hyperscaler Edition: For unlimited scale with Kubernetes

Contact sales@themisdb.com for pricing details.

Building with Enterprise Features

If you have obtained enterprise source code, you can build with enterprise features enabled:

Linux/macOS

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/makr-code/ThemisDB.git
cd ThemisDB

# Add enterprise source (provided separately)
# Copy enterprise files to:
#   - src/enterprise/
#   - include/enterprise/
#   - plugins/enterprise/

# Build with enterprise features
cmake -B build -S . \
  -DTHEMIS_BUILD_ENTERPRISE=ON \
  -DTHEMIS_ENTERPRISE_SHARDING=ON \
  -DTHEMIS_ENTERPRISE_ANALYTICS=ON \
  -DTHEMIS_ENTERPRISE_REPLICATION=ON \
  -DTHEMIS_ENTERPRISE_SECURITY=ON

cmake --build build --target themis_enterprise_all

Windows

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/makr-code/ThemisDB.git
cd ThemisDB

# Add enterprise source (provided separately)
# Copy enterprise files to appropriate directories

# Build with enterprise features
cmake -B build -S . -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" `
  -DTHEMIS_BUILD_ENTERPRISE=ON `
  -DTHEMIS_ENTERPRISE_SHARDING=ON `
  -DTHEMIS_ENTERPRISE_ANALYTICS=ON

cmake --build build --config Release --target themis_enterprise_all

Enterprise Documentation

High-level enterprise feature documentation is available in the public repository:

Detailed implementation guides and examples are provided with the enterprise source code.

License Validation

Enterprise features require a valid license key. The license is validated at runtime:

# config/enterprise_license.yaml
license:
  key: "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY"
  customer: "Your Organization"
  tier: "enterprise"  # reseller, enterprise, or hyperscaler
  expiry: "2026-12-31"

Without a valid license, enterprise features will not load.

Support

Enterprise Edition Support

  • 24/7 Support Portal (license holders only)
  • Dedicated Technical Account Manager (Hyperscaler tier)
  • Priority bug fixes and feature requests
  • Custom integrations and consulting

FAQ

Q: Can I use Community Edition in production?
A: Yes! The Community Edition is fully functional and production-ready for single-node deployments.

Q: What happens if I try to enable enterprise features without a license?
A: The build will warn that enterprise source is not available, and enterprise features will be disabled. The core database functionality remains unaffected.

Q: Can I migrate from Community to Enterprise Edition?
A: Yes, migration is seamless. Your existing databases and configurations are fully compatible.

Q: Is the Community Edition limited or crippled?
A: No! The Community Edition includes all core database features with no artificial limitations. Enterprise Edition adds features specifically designed for large-scale, multi-node deployments.

Q: Do I need enterprise features for GPU acceleration?
A: No, GPU acceleration is available in Community Edition. Enterprise Edition adds multi-GPU support and advanced GPU memory management.

Best Practices & Architecture

Why Separate Repositories?

ThemisDB follows the industry-standard "GitLab model" for commercial open-source projects:

✅ Benefits:

  • Community Edition is fully functional and self-contained
  • Enterprise code is protected and only available to licensed customers
  • Clear separation makes licensing and support straightforward
  • No destructive updates - existing installations keep working

📚 Used by:

  • GitLab (Community vs Enterprise Edition)
  • MongoDB (Community vs Enterprise Server)
  • Grafana (OSS vs Enterprise)
  • Redis (OSS vs Enterprise)

Distribution Model

Public Repository (GitHub):

  • Full Community Edition source code
  • High-level enterprise feature documentation
  • Plugin interfaces and APIs
  • Build system with optional enterprise support

Private Distribution (Licensed Customers Only):

  • Enterprise implementation source code
  • Detailed integration documentation
  • Enterprise examples and tests
  • Priority support and updates
