Charmed MongoDB is an enhanced, source-available, and highly-scalable database that is a fully-compatible for MongoDB 5.0.13, MongoDB 5.0.13 Community Edition. It offers more features than the MongoDB Community version, such as backup and restore, monitoring and security features.
One benefit of using the Charmed MongoDB snap package is that it bundles MongoDB with other tools in its ecosystem to be used in a Charmed Operator. One of the operators that uses this snap package is the Charmed MongoDB (VM Operator) - https://charmhub.io/mongodb?channel=5/edge
A snap version is a combination of both the application version and / (slash) the channel, e.g. 5/stable, 5/candidate, 5/edge. The channels are ordered from the most stable to the least stable, candidate, and edge. More risky channels like edge are always implicitly available. So, if the candidate is listed, you can pull the candidate and edge. When stable is listed, all three are available.
This snap is available in a specific architecture, e.g. amd64 architecture and runs in a particular base OS, e.g. Core22.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward.
The packages for RHEL 8 and RHEL 7 are in each distribution’s respective Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 8 and RHEL 7, which is why they’re listed separately below.
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 8 with the following command:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 7 with the following command:
sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
Adding the optional and extras repositories is also recommended:
sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
sudo yum update
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install Charmed MongoDB, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install charmed-mongodb
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
