  1. Allow the ability when NVME cluster to autoscale up based on CPU and Memory

    To provide autoscaling capability for MongoDB NVME clusters based on CPU utilization and memory metrics. This feature would automatically provision additional resources when predefined thresholds are reached, ensuring optimal performance during usage spikes without manual intervention.

    Currently, MongoDB Atlas NVME-based clusters require manual vertical scaling, which leads to:
    - Performance degradation during unexpected high-load periods
    - Inefficient resource allocation requiring constant monitoring
    - Potential application downtime during scaling operations
    - DevOps overhead for continuous capacity planning

  2. Add support for all type of joins like Postgres has and improve performance

    $lookup is a performance killer. Joins are crucial parts in every OLTP system. $lookup is the equivalent to join in SQL, however $lookup is slow, doesn't support hash joins or other efficient join algorithm implemented in Postgres for example.

    Seems that if mongo won't add support, their DB puts behind Postgres.

  3. MongoDB should have a database backup system commit base for large self-management databases, like git commit.

    There is already a mongodb backup tool mongodump but it is not a good solution for backing up large databases. We thought of making a CMS Platform with mongodb. Billions of websites can be created there. For such a large platform, the mongodump backup tool does not seem sufficient.

    We want a solution where Mongodb will manage a different backup directory their data will not be deleted even run the delete command. like blockchain. If we run the delete command it will delete the data from the main database but the secondary backup database will declare it as a delete…

  4. Making operations that hang indefinitely more visible

    Hi Team,

    It would be useful for some kind of timeout message to be implemented if an operation is waiting on commitQuorum - say wait an hour and then return an error message with "Can't perform operation, required number of commitQuorum members not available to process this operation" or something similar. I don't think a command should hang indefinitely, and it can also help both customers and support for the analysis of this kind of issues.

    Thanks in advance

  5. connection

    Hi,
    it will be greatly appreciated to have an option to control the connections number when choosing an instance.
    M30 is just what we need except for the connections number
    we have around ~2.5k and max is 3k it would help a lot to have an option to increase just the connections number, so we wont need to move to M40

  6. user authentication

    Hy

    It would be extremely useful to be able to create users who can only connect to the database from specific networks or even specific IP addresses, similar to what is possible with MySQL.

    For example, using the following commands:

    CREATE USER 'user_name'@'10.214.3.0' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON shorturl.* TO 'user_name'@'10.214.3.0';

    You can create a user who can access the database only from the network with the IP address 10.214.3.0.

    I would like to know if it is possible to achieve similar functionality in mongodb as well. This would be very useful for my purposes, as I want…

  7. Introduce a new field BucketLifeSpan Optional along with Granularity

    An enhancement to MongoDB's management of time series collections could involve the introduction of a BucketLifeSpan attribute, in addition to the existing Granularity setting. This new, optional attribute would automate the duration a bucket can remain open, with the condition that Granularity should be less than or equal to BucketLifeSpan.

    Consider a use case involving a time series collection for tracking data from 70,000 socket devices daily, with DeviceId as the metafield. Assuming data is organized into daily collections and granularity is set to minutes to optimally fill the buckets unless they reach their size limit.

    For a collection named…

  8. support parallel query executions include find(), aggregation()

    To use multi-core environment and enhance the query performance w/ a large amount of documents, need a parallel execution.
    Sharding or microsharding is not an alternative in this case.

  9. TTL index throttling for deletion

    To avoid deletion impact, we need to control the quantity and speed of document generations(insert).
    Need a way to throttle down the deletion quantity per a delete operation.

    i.e. # of documents per a ttl delete, sleep time between deletions(default 60s)

  10. define the random seed manually, for $rand and $sample

    It will be great if an additional paramater to define the seed for $rand and $sample could be use.

  11. add IO throughput related fields to 'serverStatus' output

    There is no IO throughput related fields in the result of serverStatus, instead in FTDC this is available in the disk metrics.
    Need it in serverStatus output so that we can monitor it.

  13. Compound clustered index

    Now it is possible to create a clustered index for only one field. Since documents can be arranged in ascending order of multiple fields, I see no reason to disallow a clustered index from being a compound.

    Expected syntax:

    create_collection('testVCFcoll', clusteredIndex={'key': {'_id': 1}, 'unique': True, 'name': ['#CHROM', 'POS']})

  14. Document scoped RBAC - Permission for collection document fields

    Roles and accesses can be defined on the basis of collections that define roles for users.
    It would be nice if these access permissions could be made within the scope of the fields under the collection and the query results would be returned accordingly.

    Current:

    privileges: [
    { resource: { db: "users", collection: "user" }, actions: [ "find"] },
    }

    Expected:

    { resource: { db: "users", collection: "user", field: "email" }, actions: [ "find"] },

  16. bloom filter index

    https://www.percona.com/blog/2019/06/14/bloom-indexes-in-postgresql/

    I think having an option to use bloom filter indexes could provide for better performance when compared to compound indexes and eliminate the need for having multiple indexes. It would likely require tuning still, but with very large data sets this could be much less expensive.

  18. TTL Support within a document

    The current TTL implementation where documents can expire after a certain amount of time is extremely useful, especially because of its robustness in terms of if the db crashes.

    I would love for this to be extended upon with the ability to allow data within a document to expire after a set time. So for example, if you add data to a document you could set that data and that data only to expire with its own time to live value

  20. Enable BigInt Support for Blockchain Use

    Smart contracts on Ethereum and on Ethereum compatible chains are represented as 256bit integers. There are several libraries widely used to deal with these data types in JavaScript such as bn.js and BigNumber.js.

    A potential workaround could be to split the data, store using Decimal128, and recombine using Aggregation Framework. However, this would add performance and programming overhead that encourages customers to select alternatives to MongoDB.
