  1. Shorter Temporary Durations for Network Access whitelist

    Hello,

    it would be nice if you could add options for temporary whitelist entries that are shorter than 6 hours. Often in our Team we find ourselves just needing to whitelist an ip for a short amount of time to look up some documents or fix a bug.
    For that case it would be nice to have additional shorter options like 3h, 1h, 30m, 15m.

    Thanks for taking a look

  2. Migration Tutorial Video

    I did a live migration from mLab to Atlas quite recently. Although, the steps for migration were simple and easy to execute it took me alot of time to get over the fear of migrating without losing any data. A tutorial video of the entire process would have calmed my nerves and helped me take a lot less time in the process.

  3. Ability to create and update database triggers via API

    It would be really usefule to have the ability to create and update database triggers via the API. Currently, updates to triggers cannot be integrated into our testing and deployment process because the only way to update them is manually through the interface.

  4. Expose the `indexStats` action when creating custom roles in Atlas UI.

    The $indexStats aggregation pipeline allows user to get the statistics regarding the use of each index for the collection. This aggregation pipeline requires the indexStats diagnostic action.

    However, currently Atlas UI doesn't expose this action when creating custom roles. It would be nice to have this action listed in the "Collection Actions => Diagnostic Actions" list.

  5. Terminate existing connections from IPs when removed from the whitelist

    When removing entries from an Atlas Project's IP whitelist, existing connections from those IPs are maintained, and thus those hosts can continue to perform operations until the connection times out. I'm aware such connections can be dropped by doing a Test Failover or pausing and unpausing the cluster, but in some scenarios this is not ideal if even possible. This also seems like a security gap: When access is revoked from a particular IP or CIDR block, any existing client connections originating from that IP or CIDR should be terminated and the hosts behind that IP or CIDR should be…

  7. Give an option to pause the cluster as a parameter, at the moment it is auto activating after 30 days of cluster pause which is not required

    Give an option to pause the cluster as a parameter for specific duration of time, at the moment it is auto activating after 30 days of cluster pause which is not required for all the users and manually we have to keep an eye on this at the moment.

  8. Atlas - Preferences - My Date Format - allow 24hr

    We can specify date format but the time format is limited to 12hr clock. Please allow us to specify 24hr so the activity log and rest of the UI is a little easier to read. Thanks

  9. Altas CIDR ranges for network containers are too restrictive

    Background:
    For each MongoDB Altas project, the clusters built in that project are built using a "network container", which tells MongoDB Atlas which pool of IPs it can select from given a CIDR range for its underlying infrastructure.

    AWS minimum imposed CIDR value/subnet size: /28
    MongoDB minimum imposed CIDR value for clusters deployed to AWS: /24

    Azure minimum imposed CIDR value/subnet size: /29
    MongoDB minimum imposed CIDR value for clusters deployed to Azure: /21

    For customers who elect connecting to MongoDB Atlas via VPC peering, they know that IP space is a scarce resource. Reserving /24 or /21 IP space…

  10. Atlas DNS name more than 23 characters from the cluster name.

    Allow users to have longer DNS name from the cluster name. Currently, Atlas cuts the first 23 characters from the cluster name and the users can't check the cluster name inside the mongo shell.

    Example:

    Cluster name longer than 23 characters : xxxx-us-east-1-multi-use-1
    DNS name : xxxx-us-east-1-multi-us.xsj8t.mongodb.net

  11. AWS gp3 Decouple IOPs from Disk Size

    With AWS EBS gp3 volumes, IOPs and throughput can be provisioned separately from EBS storage size. While Atlas now uses gp3 volumes and provides a base throughput of 3,000 IOPs, higher throughputs are still directly tied to disk size.

    We run IO-intensive workloads that require high throughput, and we have to severely over-size disks to get the needed throughput. We don't require the extra-low latency of provisioned IOPs (which is much more expensive than over-provisioning storage).

    According to the linked AWS documentation below, if the M60 instance size is running on an ec2 m5.4xlarge instance type, it can support a…

  13. 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.

  14. 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…

  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,…

  16. Suggestion to make the Organization Role Mappings page easier to navigate to

    Make Organization Role Mappings page in the Federation Management App quicker to navigate to. Currently the quickest way is to click the "Create Role Mapping" from the Overview page under "Optional: Set Up Advanced Settings" and then click Cancel.

    If the "Optional: Set Up Advanced Settings" box is not longer available in the Overview page, you'll have to click the Organization tab from the side navigation bar > [Organization Name] > Create Role Mapping > Cancel in order to reach the Organization Role Mappings page.

  17. MongoDB Connection Pool Proxy

    Currently there is no Connection Pool proxy supported by MongoDB.

    With the ever increasing use of serverless and containers, clusters will need to be over provisioned in order to account for the increased connection counts.

    A better solution would be a Connection Pool proxy allowing for a many-to-one relation for connections to MongoDB.

    In the case of Lambda, this would reduce the number of Zombie connections (Connections that have been terminated on the Lambda side but are still open on the server side.)

  18. Option to deploy the databases with pinned version.

    Atlas by default picks the latest patch when we create the databases for any major version. It would be helpful if the customers can choose and control the minor version of the databases(including patch version) when we deploy the cluster. For example: We want to deploy the databases with 4.2.19 but the Atlas is automatically creating 4.2.22

    This will help us identify any application dependencies on any particular patch version during our migration to Atlas, also this will help us test the patch versions in dev/lower environments before we promote the version to production.

    This feature is important for us…

  19. Test maintenance effects

    While Atlas provides the 'test failover' feature, this only takes effect on the primary of each shard. Customers who run large sharded clusters on Atlas require testing the effects of a full maintenance patch that would restart all mongod's and mongos's, config servers, etc. This feature is a request to improve the chaos engineering features of Atlas.

    At present, customers are being advised to change the TLS version of the cluster which could force restarts of all mongod's, mongos's and config servers. While this may be acceptable in non-production environments, it is unlikely in production environments.

    I believe there's an…

  20. disabling mongo user

    Instead of completely removing a Mongo database user, its better if there is option to disable user so that if there is any untoward incident we can enable it back. After observing for some time, we can delete/disable the user based on organization requirements. Its useful in some cases like mongo db user returned to same department after some time .
