Hi! You can find the detailed differences here: https://docs.timeplus.com/proton-oss-vs-enterprise

In short, Proton focuses on simplicity — it’s a single-instance engine powerful enough for most common streaming and analytics workflows.

Features like clustering, mutable streams, and S3-based stream storage/state checkpoints are part of the enterprise edition, while Proton keeps the core performance and streaming capabilities in an open-source form.
