  1. make auto scaling alert message granular

    When a cluster is changed due to auto scaling a message is sent to all project members. Project member cannot unsubscribe to this.
    Request :
    Provide the option, like all other alerts, to change the the alert settings for auto scaling

  2. Autoscaling - CPU/ Memory Utilization duration monitor - Minutes

    Hi, Currently there is no option to initiate auto scaling during heavy workload/ requests comes and the cpu/ memory utilization is 75% for the even within
    - 5 minutes
    - 15 minutes
    - 30 minutes
    - 45 minutes

    The system has to wait for 1 hour to autoscale to next tier.This one of the concerns for the heavy workload applications.

    Idea:

    Add a custom duration option as

    • minutes also while monitoring the cpu / memory utilization

    Example : When a CPU / Memory utilization is above 75% for the past 15 minutes , move the cluster to the next tier…

  3. peering

    allow multiple Atlas CIDR (VPC Region) in the same project and allow attaching each cluster to the desired vpc.

    today in order to have multiple vpcs in atlas (for example dev &prod)
    they need to be separated projects, that create a lot of duplicated work and settings

  4. Implement conditional DNS forwarders in Atlas to support internal LDAP servers

    When a customer wants to use their private LDAP server in Atlas, they currently need to either expose their name via public DNS or use an internal CA and an IP address. For some customers these scenarios are suboptimal since they want to keep their infrastructure details private, even at DNS layer.

    The proposed solution is to use the Conditional DNS forwarders in all cloud providers supported by Atlas, so the requests to resolve a private DNS zone (specified by the customer) will be forwarded to the listed DNS servers across the VPC peering connection while all other (public) DNS…

  5. Propagation of NodeType via Prometheus metrics

    Context: we rely on Prometheus metrics for various systems in the company. The setup of clusters until now was pretty standard, so basically we had replica sets and sharded clusters with electable nodes only – clusters with three nodes per RS or shard which numbers correspond to <clustername>-<shardnumber>-<(00|01|02)>>. Now we have a fourth analytics node in the clusters, which out of convention seems to get the next incremented number 03.

    The thing is we cannot rely on convention and we need to have a way to distinguish the node types from Prometheus metrics (or at least from the Atlas API)…

  6. Add Terraform support for Realm Apps

    Realm Apps (https://docs.mongodb.com/realm/get-started/create-realm-app/) can't be managed via Terraform. This would be a great addition to the provider!

  7. Compact collection from UI

    Compacting of a collection directly from the MongoDB Atlas website UI.

    No need to run CLI commands and changing primary database.

    Making regular maintenance easier.

  8. New view with connection statistics

    It would be valuable to have a per-cluster view showing an overview of connections into each cluster including:

    • The number of connections per hours (opened, closed == churn)
    • Which IPs connections are coming from and how many from each over time
    • What drivers are being used for these connections and from which IPs
    • Which user is opening the connections

    This information can be very useful in understanding which applications/microservices are opening up the most connections, and helping to find old drivers etc.

  9. Support for User Groups with Separate Authentication Configurations

    Currently Atlas only uses a single (flat) user group which only allows for 1 type of authentication per Organization.

    However if Federated Authentication is enabled, the authentication mechanism in Atlas is bypassed for the IdP based on the domain name of the user and the configuration of Atlas Authentication.

    This causes a problem if there are multiple groups of users who all share a domain name, some of whom are registered in an IdP, and some of whom are not registered in an IdP (for example users in 2 divisions of the same company).

    In this scenario, users who are…

  10. Atlas maintenance Notification should include description of maintenance

    Whenever Atlas wants to do maintenance, it is sending email alert about the timing of maintenance. In addition to that we are requesting information about the nature of maintenance also like Mongo patching , BI connector upgrade or increasing no of connections etc. This will give us the information about the work and we can broadcast the same to our counterparts so that they can also use the product efficiently.

  11. Allow cost allocation tags

    on behalf of the customer,
    would be great if we could allow tags on Org/ project level for cost allocation reasons (similar to how AWS allows this). When creating a project we can eg. add the type of environment, cost centre, bearer etc - without it showing up in the name. Does not necessarily need to show up on the invoice but we must be able to create a view which includes this info.

  12. Projects Organization

    It would be great if we could organize the projects and not have them all at the same level of organization.
    We could use this hierarchy to put rights, consult costs ...
    A bit like the idea of Azure's management group or GCP's "Folder".

  13. Allow multiple VPC CIDR ranges in Peering connection

    Allow multiple VPC CIDR for a single Peering connection from Atlas to AWS.

    Our AWS account has two CIDR ranges for a single VPC. Atlas peering connection only allows connection to a single CIDR range.
    Today, I need to create a separate private link connection to be able to connect to the second CIDR range.

  14. Annual Snapshot Retention Policy Option

    I have customers that would like the ability to retain annual snapshots going back 5 or so years for compliance reasons. Currently, you can do this with monthly snapshots by retaining for 5*12 months, but then you have to store all the monthly snapshots in between.

  15. Allow cluster to define priority of availability zones

    Similar to how it's possible to select the preferred region in a multi-region cluster, it would be beneficial being able to select the preferred availability zone in a single-region cluster. This would allow an application to live as close to the cluster's PRIMARY node as is possible.

  16. Elections bar colors in Metrics should be more vivid

    The atlas metrics show node election statuses in colors - red/orange and brown. When there are multiple re-elections in a short period of time, these all merge together making it hard to decipher the order of occurrence - especially the near overlap of orange and brown Having vivid/contrasting colors should make debugging easier.

    It would be helpful if some aspect about the x-axis would tell you what status the node was in at a given time. For example: the x-axis is also that color from time X to time Y, and then the node was demoted/down and the axis turns…

  17. Add Elastic integration to Atlas

    Add support to send cluster metrics to Elastic. Elastic has recently been putting a lot of work into their APM and logging solution, this is now a viable alternative to NewRelic and Datadog and is gaining traction. It would be great if Atlas supported sending metrics to Elastic. Please see below for references

    https://www.elastic.co/apm
    https://www.elastic.co/siem

    The use case for this is the same as NewRelic or Datadog. I wish to monitor my Atlas clusters from inside Elastic, create dashboards and set up alerting

  19. Allow users to download backup snapshots from BYO-KMS encrypted clusters

    Many clients download backup snapshots to keep an offline copy of their data either to restore it into their on-prem development environment or to keep an offline copy of their data. At the moment, Atlas does not allow downloading backup snapshots that have customer BYO-KMS encryption enabled.

  20. Migrate users and roles with cluster data

    It would be great to be able to transfer users with their credentials and permissions from our on-premises deployment to Atlas during migration to avoid having to recreate those users using the Atlas interface or API.
