No, it's not. Any code that is dual-licensed under a proprietary license is not free. It's merely shareware.

And I can't even find what RockDB is...

Fun fact, Mongo's license disclaimer actually can NOT be legally applied by their downstream forks.

If it's RocksDB, then I think it's a fork of LevelDB.
(I just recently had a dive into these kind of databases)
Those are key-values DB AFAIK (while mongodb is a document database).
