    we've already seen a full text search and it will be awesome if you manage to implement partial version :)

  2. MongoDB emulator

    From a user - A MongoDB in-memory emulator would help development against MongoDB in a completely isolated way. They deploy self contained applications for developers that don't have any external connections other than MongoDB. The customer found a community project, fongo, that does this, but it is not supported and trails development by a few versions. https://github.com/fakemongo/fongo. I would be happy to connect the users with relevant project managers

  3. Collection Comments

    I would like the ability to attach comments to a collection so that other people using the data can get some understand of context or important Readme/FAQ that I would need to share.

  4. Performance problem with compound index using doubles, with range filtering

    It looks like there may be a problem when using doubles in a compound index and using range-test filters against all of them in a query.
    The problem we see from the explain plans is that far more keys are being examined that there should be and this leads to poor performance.
    If we switch to using a similar setup but with integers instead, we don’t see the problem.

    See the second part of this ticket for full details

    https://support.mongodb.com/case/00659614

    We have a document that looks like this –

    {
    "id" : ObjectId("5e2ab24eca314f10b486d827"),
    "attributes" : [
    {
    "attributeCode" :

  5. Too many keys in 2dsphere index when used on geoJson within arrays

    Mongo support have asked me to raise this bug as an improvement idea because they see it as an edge case.
    The issue is here and includes more details:

    https://support.mongodb.com/case/00659614

    In summary, if you have a geoJson sub document that sits within an array, and you index it using the 2dspehere index, you get keys duplicated for every element in the array.

    For example, if you have geoJson that represents a big 4,500 vertex polygon, and you put it within an array element, if the array has only one element I see 20 keys generated, which is good. But if…

  7. Periodic large bulk insert/update all or nothing with instant switchover

    Provide the ability for orgs to update things like large reference data sets periodically. E.g. an ecommerce site updates its product inventory every night at midnight, where even though the inserts or updates may take say 10 minutes to run and complete, the applications do not see the changes until the bulk update finishes. The problem otherwise is currently, the ecommerce app, in this example, may be reading product data partly from yesterday's data and partly from today's changed data, during the 10 minute run. For consistency the application would ideally want to see data from either before the bulk…

  8. Support for wildcards in permission parameters

    Support for wildcards or maybe even regular expressions in the database/collection name of a permission for a custom role.

    We have a multi tennant setup, by storing every customer's data in its own database on the cluster. The applications we build span those databases, but every application has it's own permissions on a collection name bases.

    instead of granting "find" permission to the "products" collection of all databases like "mongodbcom" and "somecompanycom", it would be nice if we coulf configure it like "find" permission to the "products" collection on the database matching /^[a-z]+_[a-z]+$/

  9. Making Elections Faster.

    Election is an expensive operation. We can avoid the elections if we can enforce some priority-based ordering on who shall become primary if the current primary fails.
    Specifically, we can keep a node with second highest priority in the data center of the most preferred primary. Usually, the network failures within the data centers are less probable than across the data centers. So, it is reasonable to believe that if the second preferred member loses the contact with current primary, it is the primary node which has failed and not the network. As a supplement, we can also have redundant…

  10. Improve the election process to consider node reachability

    Consider both new and existing sockets to be utilized in order to make more realistic observations about cluster health during an election to avoid for example DNS related issues which would make a node unreachable for new connections.

  11. Include the _ids of existing documents in BulkWriteResult when performing upserts

    When performing a bulk operation, it is possible to obtain the _ids of upserted documents via BulkWriteResult. For example:

    db.getCollection("test").find({})

    db.test.drop()

    var bulk = db.test.initializeUnorderedBulkOp();
    bulk.find({name: "huey"}).upsert().updateOne({name: "huey"});
    bulk.execute();
    ```

    The BulkWriteResult contains the upserted _id:

    BulkWriteResult({
    "writeErrors" : [ ],
    "writeConcernErrors" : [ ],
    "nInserted" : 0,
    "nUpserted" : 1,
    "nMatched" : 0,
    "nModified" : 0,
    "nRemoved" : 0,
    "upserted" : [
    {
    "index" : 0,
    "_id" : ObjectId("5ec77b5cc4a955ce03a4cd2e")
    }
    ]
    })

    However, when a document already exist, the _id is not returned:

    db.test.find()

    var bulk = db.test.initializeUnorderedBulkOp();
    bulk.find({name: "huey"}).upsert().updateOne({name: "huey", outfit: "red"});
    bulk.find({name: "luey"}).upsert().updateOne({name: "luey", outfit:…

  13. More complex balancer windows for sharded clusters

    Currently we can define a single balancer window which is applied for every day of the week. It would useful to extend this with, for example:

    • multiple windows per day (e.g. 2-4am and 9-11pm)
    • custom windows for days of the week (e.g. Sat 5pm-midnight, Sunday 0-24)

  15. Allow kill connections

    Kill session commands only stop current activities on DB, but not closing/dropping connections (connections still remain open in $listSessions).
    It´d be useful to be able to close opened connections in situations where too many sessions have been opened incorrectly or not closed.

  16. Burstable IOPS for MongoDB Atlas on Azure

    According to Azure documentation, bursting is enabled by default for all VMs that using Premium SSD (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/disks-types#bursting). It would be great if MongoDB Atlas on Azure can get benefit from it.

  17. Validate Window

    In 4.4 with validate being able to run in the background.

    https://docs.mongodb.com/master/reference/method/db.collection.validate/#behavior

    It would be good to have a "validate window" that would cycle though each collection. Similar to the way a balancing window works in sharding.

  18. Allow validate to use replica tags

    The use case for this is to be able to target a secondaries in different shards.

    If validate accepted tag read preference it could be kicked off from a shell connected to a mongos.

  19. would be helpful, with the online interface, to be able to bulk import collections

    For those whose corporate firewalls do not allow for mongo client access to the free mongo cloud db, it would be extremely helpful to be able to upload a pre-formatted json collection of documents, rather than entering those documents one at a time.

  20. mongo binary utility for slaptest

    Please provide binary for slaptest for Mongo server just like mysqlslap for mysql server. This enables us to test a better index by doing a slap test on server with multiple combinations of indexes by dba itself instead of depending on load tests from application like jmeter load test , soasta load test etc which needs involvement of multiple resources, developers, testers and lot of time.
