Disclosure: I work for Amazon.

Amazon has never offered a database service based on the MongoDB server software. Not when it was AGPLv3 nor when it was SSPLv1.

No, it didn't copy the software. That's like saying min.io copied S3 software, which would also be false.

It implemented a wire protocol for interoperability purposes, similar to functionality in IBM DB2, Azure CosmosDB, FerretDB, and other databases.

If there is anything specific you believe is confusing, please provide some details and I will pass the feedback on.
