1. File/Binary Data type within Realm Database

   Example:

   A new type could be defined, such as RealmFile. A RealmObject could have a RealmFile field or even a RealmList<RealmFile> field. Just like all other RealmObjects, this would simply be a proxy and wouldn't contain the actual file/binary data. To access or update the data in the RealmFile you would get an InputStream or OutputStream. Realm handles the rest in terms of syncing, caching, linking, etc. I know that Realm itself isn't really designed for arbitrarily large files, so the data contained in a RealmFile wouldn't necessarily need to be put into Realm. But it would be managed and handled by Realm as if it were. In terms of the backend, I don't know MongoDB's product offering well enough to know whether a file/blob storage backend exists that Realm could plug into.

   It would be helpful if there were other attributes on the RealmFile as well, such as the current hash, which would get updated when writing data to the RealmFile. This would be helpful for querying based on a hash.

   Here's an example application how to use AWS S3 and Atlas Device SDK .NET to handle large files with the help of App Services Functions:

2. Schema Migration for Synced Realm

   Found this on the forum:

   https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/client-provided-invalid-schema-version/267007

   Which pertains to enabling schema versioning. I'm working with a project that deals with data that has dynamic fields; default system fields, and user-defined fields(custom).

   I'm using those fields to create rules, but now I'm limited to query for only system fields since the realm for now expects a static schema realm objects.

   Based on the reply in the above issue, there'll be a feature release soon to solve it. It would really help to know when could that be and to possibly expedite it. Thanks!

4. Revision History

   It would be great if revision history could be kept, either on individual RealmObjects, groups of RealmObjects, or the Realm as a whole. There could be a way to specify the fidelity of the revisions (e.g. every change or every X minutes) and a way to specify a TTL (e.g. last 30 days). If the Realm is synced, the local Realm could purge its cache of revisions older than the TTL and there could be an API to retrieve these when needed. Additionally, there could a (separate) TTL for permanent deletion of revisions as to keep the Realm from growing too large. Or, alternatively, a way to move revisions to cold storage.

   A basic use case for this is editing a document and being able to view a revision history of the document and restore a previous revision. A document could be represented by a single RealmObject that contains several RealmObject and RealmList fields, so I imagine there would need to be a way to have the parent document RealmObject have a reference to a revision anytime any of its child RealmObjects change (of course, based on the fidelity).

5. Be able to Download Users listing in App Users

   Would be nice if we could export out the user listing under Users (App Users), the login "Devices" details are also found there. It could provide us with more insights into how our users access to the application (Web or Mobile, browser version and etc..)

6. More examples

   I think if there are more examples especially videos of how to setup and do small projects maybe on YouTube, Realm definitely reach more boarder audiences. Also it will help less experienced people.

10. Add Android Studio plugin to replace Realm Studio

    It's fairly unwieldy to use Realm Studio compared to SQLite support in Android Studio, which is in the App Inspection Tool window. I think it should be relatively easy to create a similar plugin for Realm. It would remove a large disadvantage compared to SQLite for Android developers and it would help rapid development.

11. Flexible sync to support sharded cluster

    Currently https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/app-services/sync/configure/enable-sync/ states that "Enabling Flexible Sync in Your App Services Application requires a non-sharded MongoDB Atlas cluster running
    MongoDB 5.0 or greater". At the same time the maximum size of a single node in MongoDB Atlas is 4TB.

    What's the plan for apps that require much more than 4TB of data?

12. Native Codable Support for BSON Document

    Supporting the codable protocol would clear out a lot of pain points in the swift sdk. I understand realm objects are classes not structs but implementing some kind of native conversion to Realm Objects would massively widen the set of use cases. Converting BSON docs from Remote access and GraphQL Queries to Realm objects is messy and lack any documentation. Having some kind of codable support would allow search functions and advanced MongoDB queries on a database with millions of objects without worrying about the sync infrastructure. It might not seem pertinent if you consider utility apps but if we consider something like a social media with a heavy and complex user schema the conversion time and process would be a massive pain point.

13. Add the ability to manually set the internal name used by Realm for a class

    There is "RealmClass" annotation in android SDK.
    It can be used to set an internal name for some class: @RealmClass( "someName").
    It would be great to have this ability in swift SDK.
    It is not possible to set internal name for a class in swift SDK now.

14. Single unified GeoJSON type

    Generating a schema and consuming GeoJSON data in Realm is painful. Since GeoJSON has multiple 'types', Realm forces us to store a serialized string version of our GeoJSON, or to abstract our data out so that all GeoJSON objects follow the same generalized schema, which breaks some of the conveniences of GeoJSON.

    Realm should allow for a GeoJSON type OR allow the schema to be dynamic (such as supporting ORs in the schema language itself).

18. Would be great to have distinct as GraphQL operator

    Currently GraphQL operator does not have distinct
    https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/app-services/graphql/types-and-resolvers/#input-types
    Would be good to have this for improved performance. Currently we return all documents, and UI will perform the distinct operation which can be a problem if there are many documents in the collection.

19. App service (app_id) security enhancement

    App service (app_id) security enhancement.

    I am developing an App and using Realm to store data on the device and to synchronize that with my Mongo DB. Realm features finally seems to be working fine, however
    I was surprised that only the App id is needed to reach my App service programmatically from code. There is no APP secret or key pairs... It seemed even more vulnerable when experienced that the default password change urls and confirmation mail URLs has my APP id in them.

    So I dont see any gate which would prevent any of my apps users to get my app id and with that develop any code and reach my app application from mobile. I know there is the schema definition for example which must fit to my DB to have syncing and there are user permissions and limitations to ensure that a user can always reach only their own data , but I just dont feel this enough. I dont even want to get logs about bad schema definitions or such in my App service and investigate these cases if its my code or any other usage of my app by anyone.

    So feature could be to handle app id in a more secure way. It could have a private part and a public one. And public features , like confirmation mail urls should have only the public part of that. Or to apply a new app secret data which would be also needed to reach an App service.
