Plugin Compatibility
DB-less mode is the preferred choice for controller-managed Kong and Kong Enterprise clusters. However, not all plugins are available in DB-less mode. Review the table below to check if a plugin you wish to use requires a database.
Note that some DB-less compatible plugins have some limitations or require non-default configuration for compatibility.
