Rename an existing index
Allow for the possibility of renaming an existing index, without having to drop and recreate it.
Let us say a unique index exists in production, it might not be possible to safely drop it. Yet the index name might not be ideal.

Support for Ubuntu 20.4 in MongoDB Server version 4.2
Per the Server Support Matrix https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/installation/ support for Ubuntu 20 is in MongoDB Server version 4.4+ but not 4.2.
We would like to see the currently supported MongoDB Server version 4.2 available on the Ubuntu 20.4 LTS distribution.5 votes -
Reduce the minimum value for watchdogPeriodSeconds
The storage watchdog attempts to create, write, and read a test file in critical directories every 10 seconds.
The watchdogPeriodSeconds parameter controls how often these a thread checks to ensure at least one check has succeeded since the last check.
The minimum value for watchdogPeriodSeconds is 60 seconds. This means that in the worst case, the mongod could be unable to write for up to 2 minutes before the watchdog asserts and kills the stalled node. That is a very long time for a primary node to be stalled in a busy cluster.
It does make sense that watchdogPeriodSeconds must…

Kafka audit event streaming
Provide Kafka Topic as a write target for database auditing and database message logging.
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/auditing/
Auditing is currently limited to a local and editable JSON/BSON file or the system console log.
The SYSLOG is not recommended by MongoDB. "The syslog message limit can result in the truncation of the audit messages. The auditing system will neither detect the truncation nor error upon its occurrence."5 votes -

Ability to see historical `serverStatus.uptime` counter info on MongoDB Server process
What is the problem that needs to be solved? Store (historically)
serverStatus.uptimecounter info on MongoDB Server process, so that it will be possible to trackserverStatus.uptimechanges through the time.Why is it a problem? (the pain) As of now (2020-02-25) there's no way to see historical info of MongoDB Server process restarts since
serverStatus.uptimecounter is restarted every time MongoDB Server process is restarted. There's no other way (other than going into MongoDB Server process logs) to know if the process was restarted and when it was restarted. If you'd like to calculate MongoDB Server process availability, you'll…5 votes -
Budget limit for serverless pay as you go mode
I was looking at the serverless pay-as-you-go option for my DB so I could have continuous backup and snapshots but I found it too risky. Currently, the only protection user has is alerts when RPUs go over a certain budget threshold. I would like to be able to set a budget limit that would prevent me from going over pre-set daily budget. If you would get hit with DOS or some other brute force attack you could rack up lots of traffic and get an unexpected bill without a potential limit.

Use a private peering that resolves to the private IP address of your LDAP server.
We need to consume an LDAP server traffic through Private Endpoints. In the documentation we find that only creating a public endpoint it's possible but we have a security restriction. Our TAM suggested create a feedback request to the product owner.

Display Recovery time during restore process.
Team,
Currently Mongo DB restoration process not giving any recovery time estimate when restore process start and because of that we are not able to plan time window for other critical process to start which is depend on restore and not able to communicate exact time when system will be available.
Please include this feature in upcoming release.

Identification of unused/less used collections
As a DBA I'd like to identify unused collections so that I can remove them to optimize performance.
As of now there doesn’t seem to be a direct way. One option could be to settup auditing or using logging (e.g. set the slow op timer to 0 so we log everything).
An other might be to use the collstats command and frequently traverse all collections..I'd be happy to get a direct method to show me unused resp. last usage of a collection. Based on DB level or even over all DBs.

Make IAM database user authentication compatible with AWS SSO
We are in the process of implementing AWS SSO across our Organisation and wanted to tie this in with mongodb-aws for database authentication.
Unfortunately we have been informed the 2 services are not compatible.This would be a really useful add on to improve management of our systems.

Extend db.collection.distinct() to work with multiple fields in a compound key
Currently the distinct() command finds the unique set of values for a SINGLE specified field across a collection or view. For example:
db.staff.distinct("last_name" )If there is an index on the lastname field, the DISTINCTSCAN plan can use that index and the operation is very fast.
To find the unique values for a set of more than one fields, the $group aggregation stage has to be used like this:
db.staff.aggregate([
{$group: {id: {FName: "$firstname", LName: "$last_name"}} ]);This operation does not really need the $group functionality, as it is not calculating a sum/min/max/average/etc value using the…

wiredTiger open files usage
Currently WT uses a file per collection and index, leading in some scenarios to extremely high number of open files/dhandles.
Is there any plan to support one file/dhandle per database?

Allow multiple text indexes per collection
MongoDb only allow one text index by collection, in contrast of other index types.
This is a limitation that makes it difficult to develop projects with search functionality, for example, if you want to add a text search for advanced users on all fields and a public search on a subset of fields, there isn't a simple and performant way to solve it.
Many developers end up using other products like elastic search, or creating additional collections and using lookup, or using preg_reg or building smart indexes when the creation of multiple text indexes per collection would allow a quick,…

Ability to enable collection name enforcement
Currently if you perform a find or other operation, and you have a typo in your collection name, the operation will execute successfully and there is no indication that the collection you are operating on doesn't exist. It would be handy if there were some sort of session variable that could be set that tells the engine, to return an error if the collection being operated on does not exist. For example, lets say we have a collection named "myCollection". If I issue a find with a typo in the collection name from the shell like:
db.myCollectio.find();
This will successfully…

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.
