WiredTiger is a NoSQL, open source extensible platform for data management. It is released under version 2 or 3 of the GNU General Public License. WiredTiger uses multiversion concurrency control (MVCC) architecture.[1]

Details

MongoDB acquired WiredTiger Inc. on December 16, 2014.[2] The WiredTiger storage engine was made available as an optional storage engine in MongoDB 2.8.[3] Early WiredTiger users included Amazon and Connectifier.[2][4] The WiredTiger storage engine is the default storage engine starting in MongoDB version 3.2. It provides a document-level concurrency model, checkpointing, and compression, among other features. In MongoDB Enterprise, WiredTiger also supports encryption at rest.[5]
