# Harper Pro
Harper Pro is the source-available distribution of Harper, built on top of the [open-source Harper core](https://github.com/HarperFast/harper). It extends the core with enterprise features including multi-node replication, certificate management, and extended profiling and analytics. It is licensed under the [Elastic License 2.0](https://www.elastic.co/licensing/elastic-license).
Harper is a Node.js unified development platform that fuses database, cache, application, and messaging layers into one in-memory process. With Harper you can build ultra-high-performance services without boilerplate code and scale them horizontally.
**Key Features:**
**Unified Runtime:** Database, cache, application logic, and messaging all operate within a single in-memory Node.js process, eliminating external dependencies and reducing latency.
**In-Memory Performance:** Data and compute share memory space for microsecond-level access times and exceptional throughput under load.
**Native Messaging:** Built-in publish/subscribe messaging with Websockets and MQTT enables real-time communication between nodes and clients without external brokers.
**Developer Simplicity:** Annotate your data schema with `@export` to instantly generate REST APIs. Extend functionality by defining custom endpoints in JavaScript.
---
**Deploy with [Harper Fabric](https://fabric.harper.fast/#/sign-in) for Horizontal Scalability:** Distribute workloads across multiple Harper nodes by selecting your regions and latency targets.
