  1. I would like to compact to oplog myself instead of opening cases to resize it

    To compact my oplog and reclaim 300GB of disk space right after I finisihed migrating a database to Atlas using mongomirror, I had to open a support case. With that we were able to reduce our cluster tier thanks to lowering the disk tier (Azure deployment)

    It would be nice to do it myself to be faster without opening a case with severity 4 that will take me at least 2 days to accomplish that. Also, I assume that people without a subscription can't do it since you have to open a case which is exclusive only if you have…

  2. Activate bypass saml only for select users

    We have recently activated SAML SSO on our Organization and we would like to only have 1 user that is able to bypass SSO as like a "break the glass" user in case our IDP fails. It would be ideal that not every user is able to use the bypass url.

    Currently any users can use the bypass sso url

  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. Lock a user account

    We have an occasional need to disable/lock an individual database user. Either because of a run away process or inactivity. We do not want to change the password or drop the user as we may need to reenable the user quickly with the same permissions and password as before.

  5. Add option to "Explain" a query from the "Profiler" page.

    The profiler page shows a list of queries with metadata about them. It would be great to have the option to "explain" any query from this view, or in the slide-out view after clicking on a query.

  6. Expose API for Self-Service Increase of the Clusters per Project Limit

    Give Atlas users the ability to increase the number of clusters they can create in a single project above the 25 cluster limit without having to file a support ticket.

  7. Add ability to chose the new primary node when you perform a test election

    There's a "test failover" option, which shuts down the primary and forces an election. However, you have no control over which new primary will be elected (just the preferred region) which sometimes does not work as expected.

    It would be really useful if you have the possibility to manually chose which node will be elected as the new primary.

  8. Create Atlas UI Triggers Programatically

    Currently, a trigger which gets displayed on the Atlas UI (under Data Services > Triggers) cannot be created programmatically, they may only be created by clicking through the Atlas UI.

    The triggers created from the Atlas UI automatically creates a new realm app named "TriggersRealmApp" even when a realm app with the same name already exists. There is no way to have any of the triggers created under any other realm app displayed in the Atlas UI. The only way is to create them under the auto generated "TriggersRealmApp" which gets created after the first trigger from the…

  9. Deletion Protection

    Customer suggested protection from Cluster deletion similar to AWS RDS

    https://www.amazonaws.cn/en/new/2018/amazon-rds-now-provides-database-deletion-protection/

    TL;DR - a notification when a user tries to delete a cluster, that "this cluster is protected, if you need to delete please visit the console to enable deletion"

    This would be a critical piece of functionality where roles/permissions are not sufficient.

    This would allow a Private Endpoint to connect FROM an Atlas Project TO a customer's VPC/Vnet (using AWS PrivateLink or Azure Private Link), for accessing private services like a private webhook for alerting, LDAP, and/or KMS

  11. MongoDB Atlas Provider for AWS CDK

    We use AWS CDK to deploy our infrastructure. Currently there is only a Terraform provider available to automate the MongoDB Atlas deployment. We would like to have such a provider also for AWS CDK.

    In a first step this provider should support:
    - mongodbatlascluster create, edit and delete clusters
    - mongodbatlas
    databaseUser create and remove users

    Later full feature set like in Terraform should be supported.

    Currently we use a self written provider. But this has hundreds of lines of code and means a lot of maintenance effort. For our teams this additional effort can be a reason to…

  12. OCSP stapling support for Atlas Clusters

    What is the problem that needs to be solved? As a user (MongoDB Driver) you'd like to check revocation status of X.509 certificate via TLS Certificate Status Request extension (also known as OCSP stapling) instead of doing outgoing HTTP connection to OCSP endpoint from a user (MongoDB Driver) side.

    Why is it a problem? (the pain) MongoDB Server v. 4.4.X introduces OCSP stapling functionality, however OCSP stapling is not enabled on Atlas Clusters with MongoDB Server v. 4.4.X.

  13. domain names in access whitelist

    Allow domain names in whitelist for IP address. (And rename whitelist to allowlist).

    I have a server (app) on heroku. It has a domain name. I don't have a dedicated ip address range. But if I could put my domain name in (myapp.herokupapp.com or myapp.com if I get that name from godaddy), then when my server connects, you could do a DNS lookup of the domain names in the whitelist, and allow connection from those. And then, my app, and many others would be more secure. People could also use dynamic dns to support connections from their home computers, more…

  14. Support for Azure VNet Gateway Transit

    Azure VNet Peering is currently very limited as access is only possible from the VNet that is peered.
    Could you please support access from onprem via private network (Express Route or S2S VPN) and Gateway Transit.
    Maybe another way to achieve the same could be via "Private Endpoint".

  15. VPC management at the organization layer (cross-project VPC) in addition of projects layer

    In order to match with GCP Host project/service projects mechanisms (network resource is managed by the host project and used by its service projects), which is usefull for companies having a large number of GCP projects to manage, in different business units, it could be very usefull to be able to not manage VPC inside projects only, but also at Organization layer: an Atlas admin could create an "organization level VPC", and peer it with a GCP host project, and several Atlas projects could 'consume' this VPC, by running clusters in it.
    That would permit to avoid having to create…

  17. M30 Cluster Tier option with 4 CPUs

    There is a gap in the Cluster Tiers for clients that have high CPU requirements but lower disk space requirements. We run on a M30 Cluster where we max out the CPU when running aggregations, we use little of the available disk and do not want to move to a M40.

  18. 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.

  19. Add support for arbiters

    We have a situation where we are required to build in an AWS region that only has two AZs (ca-central-1). In addition, there are no other AWS regions in the country (Canada). And due to our requirement around data sovereignty, we can't host this data set within a different country.

    Because of this, we can't guarantee our cluster will stay up if we lose a single AZ unless we put an arbiter in a 2nd region (since no data is copied to the arbiter). However, Atlas does not support arbiters currently. I know arbiters aren't ideal, but in this edge…

  20. 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.
