  1. Change global default compressor setting

    Hello,
    I wanted to request a feature that would enable us to change the global default compressor setting ourselves? Something that could possibly be exposed on the Advanced Configuration settings page in Atlas? We're looking to re-compress our existing collections using zstd from the default snappy option and we want to create future collections using the zstd block compressor automatically.

    Today, we have to create a support ticket and co-ordinate with them. It would be great if we could have this feature on the Atlas portal so that we can monitor the progress and trigger it whenever we want to…

  2. Export mongo dump to AWS S3 Bucket

    It would be good to have the ability to export mongodump's and mongoexport's files directly from Atlas to the S3 bucket. This kind of feature exists for backup snapshots. In our particular case, we want to delete a cluster but before that just export all data to S3. The backup snapshot takes about 1.6TB and mobgodump's file is around 650Gb. Of course, I can take a dump to my local machine and upload it to the S3 bucket. The problem is that my SSD is only 512GB on my laptop so it is impossible to export a full dump.
    Thank…

  3. Allow multiregion sharded clusters to have Primary nodes in multiple regions

    For multi-region sharded clusters, the primaries for each shard remain in a single (highest priority) region in Atlas. If these primaries can be spread across multiple regions, that will a) provide consistent average response time for applications that connect from multiple regions as active-active b) Limit the blast radius if the highest priority region is unavailable c) Better distribution of workload from an application side.

    This architecture is currently possible with EA deployments but not with Atlas.

  4. Retrieve latest/max oplog timestamp via the Atlas Administration API

    At the moment the latest/max oplog timestamp can be retrieved via the Atlas UI in the backups section for point in time restores. This feedback post is to make this information available as part of the atlas administration api.

    For example, in the UI it states:

    You can only restore up to this oplog timestamp: 1692580549 and this increment: 1.

    Would be good to have this value available to be retrieved via the API for restores requiring oplog timestamp values in this format.

  5. Enable database users separate read/write permissions based on cluster

    We have multiple clusters in the same project, and we need to limit write access to certain CLUSTERS while leaving read only access to any other cluster. The problem is that we cannot do this by DATABASE name as there are many of them, as well as dynamically addition of new ones in clusters, so it will become obsolete and very hard to maintain.
    Trying to use the restriction does not help as it limits all access, including read only, to those clusters.
    What we'd like to see is that we can limit write access by cluster (not database/collection) and…

  6. Migrate specific collection / database from a replica set to sharded cluster(not empty) without downtime.

    It would be great if MongoDB has a tool to migrate specific collections/databases from a replica set to sharded cluster and vice versa. Migrating data with this tool should not cause any downtime in both source and destination clusters.

  7. Google Private Service Connect

    Greeting from Fivetran!

    This is somewhat related to https://feedback.mongodb.com/forums/924145-atlas/suggestions/45272014-allow-customers-to-specify-the-number-of-service-a . Having 50 service attachments is not scalable for us which requires 50 IP addresses for each PSC. We have a large customer base and having each of them create PSC would require a lot of IP addresses and would quickly exhaust our subnets.

    From the support case it seems that the decision to use 50 PSC attachments comes from the fact that GCP load balancer does not allow more than one pool of servers per service attachment and that the ports are passed through as is as opposed to AWS…

  8. On-Demand Pricing

    I have been an enthusiastic MongoDB user for a couple of years now. My business is very small and the utilization of the database is very irregular. For example, I only have a higher workload on one day of the week and on most other days I only have a load in the morning and often nothing at all at night and at weekends. That's why the smallest available plan that can also be used in production (M30) is actually too expensive for me. A pay-per-use pricing concept would be ideal and I'm not sure whether this would be possible…

  9. Adjust the Blue Mode into the actual Dark Mode

    Thanks a lot for the newly added "Dark Mode", it looks awesome. One suggestion would be to shift the blueish tone to a more grey tone instead. As we know blue light disrupts sleep :)

  10. Support the unlimited mode for t3 AWS instances (M10 and M20)

    We use M10/M20 instances (AWS backend), which accumulate CPU credits over time. The problem is that when Atlas nodes run out of CPU credits, performance goes down and we see a lot of CPU steals. This is a common issue with AWS EC2 instances. We would like to have an option within Atlas UI (a tick box perhaps) to enable the unlimited mode for t3 instances (M10/M20).

  11. Sign Up Process Security

    I have recently signed up for a developer account. I have used a Microsoft email address during registration. As soon as I submitted it, I have received an account login MFA message from Microsoft indicating that someone is trying to sign into Microsoft with it. I obviously used it to just register with Atlas as an ordinary email address. Being security savvy, it indicated a red flag. There is a potential that your registration system is compromised (hacked) by a malicious actor. Please forward this message to a security team.

  12. Ability to create mirror/snapshot clusters for load and behavior testing

    We would like to request the following:

    1. The ability to create a "mirror" or "snapshot" of a production cluster to a staging cluster.
    2. This could be either real-time or scheduled (once per day, once per week, etc.) If scheduled, it would be nice to be able to spin up a new cluster each time it's mirrored (so that previous mirrored cluster remains available)
    3. The mirroring should be allowed to use a different hardware type, for example, our production cluster uses NVME disks, but our mirrored cluster we'd use cheaper HDDs with lower CPU.
    4. The mirrored cluster should be allowed to…

  14. Hyperlink to "all cases" that's under the "create new case" link

    To access the support portal from the projects page:

    • Navigate to Support to the left side of the page
    • Click on Visit Support Portal button under Request Support

    It will be easier to navigate if a hyper link of "all cases" can be added to "create new case" from the "get help" drop down as in screenshot attached.

  15. Remove the requirement to have an API Access List CIDR before being able to manage backup schedules

    The issue is described in this github issue, specifically in the linked comment: https://github.com/mongodb/terraform-provider-mongodbatlas/issues/222#issuecomment-855905952

    Here is the requirement as described in the API docs: Remove All Cloud Backup Schedules
    Removes all cloud backup schedules for the specified cluster. "This schedule defines when MongoDB Cloud takes scheduled snapshots and how long it stores those snapshots. To use this resource, the requesting API Key must have the Project Atlas Admin role and an entry for the project access list."
    https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/api-resources-spec/#tag/Cloud-Backups/operation/deleteAllBackupSchedules

    Our request is that the requirement to have an API Access List to manage backup policies be removed.

    At the very least,…

  17. CORS on the Atlas API

    The Atlas API does not yet support CORS. Without CORS, calling the API from within a browser, using a React Client, for example, fails the 'preflight checks'.

    "...has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource...."

    If the Atlas API could add the 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *in the header response, then browsers would permit the API to be called.

    Note: for the pre-flight check, the browsers call the OPTION method.

  18. Set Customer Managed Key (CMK) for wiredtiger encryption at the Organization level

    For Organizations with a large number of projects, it is cumbersome to rotate keys for every project. If there was an option to set a default at the Organization level, and maybe override by CMKs set at project level, it will reduce the effort of key rotation for every project.

  19. Enhanced Access to Secrets in the context.environment Object

    We would like to see an improvement where secrets can be accessed as environment variables directly through the context.environment object. For example, if we have a secret called myApiKey, we would like to be able to access it in a function using context.environment.secrets.myApiKey.

    This would make the process of storing and accessing environment-specific sensitive data like API keys, access tokens, etc., much more straightforward and error-proof.

    As it stands, we're creating a workaround by saving env specific API keys as secrets, and then using some logic with context.environment.tag to fetch the correct environment API key. However, this approach is not…
