  1. Alerts on Configuration Changes

    It would be nice to have an alert configurable when any change is made to the cluster configuration. It helps with compliance that there is knowledge of such changes without having to manually search and activity feed.

  2. Exclude nodes from Autoscaling

    We run huge analytics, reports and queries over our analytics node. And its expected that analytics node is sometimes over immense CPU or Memory pressure.

    Current behaviour: When I enable Autoscaling, all the nodes in my cluster scales up when there is heavy load.
    Expected behaviour: I would like my analytics node to slow down or the query to timeout rather than scaling the entire cluster.

    Therefore, I should have an option to exclude the metrics of analytics node while deciding for autoscaling.

  3. Atlas policies

    In the MongoDB atlas portal, there should be a way to configure policies across an organization. ie: policies to restrict users from creating clusters from certain cloud providers (ie: azure), restrict users from creating databases of a certain size, etc.

  4. Online Archive - Automatically defragment data file and release disk space after archiving

    This is a request for Atlas to automatically defragment the data file and for the WiredTiger storage engine to automatically release empty space to the operating system, for clusters with active Online Archive.

    After implementing Online Archive, and seeing data be archived to S3 based on our archiving rule, we expected the available cluster storage to increase since Online Archive had effectively deleted data from the cluster.

    However, MongoDB Docs states: "When you archive data, Atlas first copies the data to the cloud object storage and then deletes the data from your Atlas cluster. WiredTiger does not release the storage…

  5. Database user credentials rotation with AWS SecretManager

    1. Similar to the HashiCorp Vault integration, you should offer the option to use AWS SecretManager in the same way
    2. Rotating dbuser credentials is a common best practice. Many people that are "AWS" shops chose AWS-native solutions over 3rd- party.
    3. We use SecretManager, so this would save us from having to write something of our own.

  6. Ability to provide IP addresses as a list for Network Access

    When adding IP addresses on a cluster/project (Network Access), it would be great to be able to provide a comma-delimited list of IP addresses instead of having to enter them one-by-one.

  7. configure IP whitelisting on database user level

    enable the user creation to have the following option

    authenticationRestrictions: [
    {
    clientSource: ["<IP>" | "<CIDR range>", ...],
    serverAddress: ["<IP>" | "<CIDR range>", ...]
    },
    ...
    ],

  8. Support optional fallback to source cluster after cutover in Live Migration

    Live Migrate allows for migrations from non-Atlas clusters into Atlas by syncing data from the source to the Atlas destination, and then cutting over the application to direct workload to the destination.

    It's possible to test the application on the destination before cutover, but after cutover, there's no way to sync data in reverse in case unforeseen issues arise and it's necessary to fall back to the source (or another) cluster again.

    Having a "fallback sync" option could help with this.

  9. Support for delayed replicas

    It would be great if Atlas provided support for hidden, priority 0 delayed replicas. For workloads that do not need real time data or situations where data recovery is needed, a delayed replica would be the fastest way to mitigate both of those scenarios.

  10. Allow customer encryption key validation time interval

    Currently, Atlas has a 15 minute interval where it checks access to remotely stored Customer Managed Encryption keys for the custom encryption at rest feature.

    This value is not changeable, and it implies a problem: access to encryption keys can be lost for longer periods than 15 minutes without that implying that the key has been invalidated by the customer.

    A perfect example of this was the recent Azure AD global outage that prevented all authentication to the Azure platform for about 3 hours (complete outage description: https://app.azure.com/h/SM79-F88/691d78). While the key used for one of our clusters was not…

  11. Ability to schedule monthly maintenance windows

    Ideally we'd have the ability to schedule maintenance windows that are monthly. Either the option to say maintenance run on the 3rd of the month or every 2nd Tuesday. The current issue I see is that your non-prod clusters and prod clusters can share the same window and get patched at the same time, or you pick different days of the week for patches (e.g. Monday for non-prod, Friday for prod), but we risk having prod patched before non-prod in that situation.

    I realize we have the ability to defer maintenances for a week, which is great. However, we're now…

  12. Alert setup for failed logins

    There is no good monitoring or alert functionality for dealing with potential invalid login attempts.

    I suggest an alert setup to handle events when known users fail more than 3 times to login (either in Atlas or via driverlogin to db).

    We have had an external audit done and this is something they have found as a shortage in the MongoDB Atlas environment.

    Log files are good but not to monitor potential security issues

  13. Allow Atlas User Data Access Permissions to be configured on a per-database/collection basis

    Similarly to how database user data access permissions can be configured on a per-database or per-collection basis, it would be ideal if Atlas user data access permissions (as they apply to Data Explorer) could be configured on a more granular basis as well.

  14. Using replica set tags for invoice categorization

    Customer would like replica set tags added to the invoice as a column, in order to further categorize costs. In some instances, the customer has multiple products assigned to a single cluster, and putting the product name in the cluster won't suffice.
    The current solution is to use the Invoice API, and then call the Cluster API, in order to programmatically build out a CSV containing the cluster tags as an additional column in the CSV.

  15. Enable setting the security.redactClientLogData parameter.

    We're using Atlas to store PII (HIPAA), and we need to store the log files for an extended period of time, but we don't want any PII / HIPAA data to be stored in the logs.

  16. Hosting Atlas on DigitalOcean

    In addition to AWS, Azure and GC, give an option to host on DigitalOcean. DigitalOcean has a really cheap and well-made Kubernetes system that requires VPC because container IPs are always changing, and I would want them to connect to Atlas without having to just open Atlas to whitelist every IP.

  17. Unique VPC Peer CIDR

    Prevent the same VPC Peer CIDR block, is it currently possible to have 2 projects with same CIDR block, which requires us to delete our clusters and peer before creating new clusters

    There should be a way to prevent them from having same CIDR block or the ability to change the CIDR block AFTER they are created

  18. Allow Billing Alerts per Project

    Currently, we can configure Atlas to send an alert when the current bill for any project is above a specific amount. It would be great to be able to set alerts for specific projects. This way we could more easily manage budget fors projects and alert project owners.

  19. Alert for WiredTiger Cache

    Hi,

    Can you please create an alert for WiredTiger metrics, such as used cache?

    We had several cluster instances going over the 5% of used cached (dirty data) and would like to be notified when it happens.

    Regards,
    Sergei
