  1. Compressed Fields

    When large JSON structures are being stored but don't need to be queryable it may be more performant to handle the compression at the field-level as opposed to the network level (similar to what is described in https://medium.com/idealo-tech-blog/advanced-mongodb-performance-tuning-2ddcd01a27d2).

    This would isolate compression and decompression on the client side (unless network compression was used as well), however the compressed field would be persisted as-is (compressed) to the cluster.

  2. Allow custom service names with mongodb+srv URI scheme

    We are using DCOS (marathon/mesos) to manage our services. DCOS generates SRV records for our mongos instances under a record that looks like

    mongos-mongodb.tcp.marathon.mesos
    However, there's currently no way for me to use this because when I provide a connection url like

    mongodb+srv://mongos-mongodb.tcp.marathon.mesos
    the drivers prepend "mongodb.tcp" to the provided url. It's not clear why it's required that the host must start with "mongodb.tcp". Why not let the user specify the actual DNS entry to query?

    I believe the same issue will exist for multiple orchestration frameworks such as Consul/Nomad and Kubernetes.

  3. Dynamic Configuration Changes for Connections

    We would like to suggest a feature improvement where connection parameters can be dynamically changed so that no restart of client application infrastructure is needed.

    Currently, when changing connection configuration, this usually requires the restart of a considerable number of pods or containers with the unavoidable consequence of a sudden surge in connection attempts.

    Our request specifically would be to provide a way for drivers to read both connection string and connection parameters information from a source that can be easily managed and that's not necessarily embedded in the code, and

    Drivers should also detect when this configuration has changed…

  4. Improve MongoDB Kotlin driver to match Kmongo or Realm

    Having tested both Realms and KMongo i can say that the MongoDB Kotlin driver is lacking a lot when it comes to idiomatic kotlin.

    First of all, requiring Strings and not accepting KProperty<T> forcing people to type Foo::bar.name is something that should have never made past v1.0
    Second of all, the kotlin driver doesnt solve any of the issues that KMongo had - in fact, its a downgrade from KMongo. Update doesnt accept Kotin objects as a parameter something that is done by Realms.

    In order for MongoDB Kotlin driver to even be considered usable it needs to be better…

  5. Support authentication credential rotation

    MongoDB drivers should provide support for rotating authentication credentials:

    • The customer may opt to rotate a specific credential (a password, client keytab, or a re-issued client certificate - when your private key will be the old one or a new one and the certificate will always be updated), or both the username and its credential
    • drivers must support authentication hooks/override methods to handle custom logic. For example: when an external vault processes the password change, it will have a delay before the SCRAM / PLAIN password gets changed in the MongoDB Server / LDAP server. The customer-provided code will take…

  6. Multiple collection ACID transactions

    Currently we can update multiple documents with one query if all documents belong to the same collection as shown below;

    dB.collection.bulkWrite([ query1, query2, query3, query4 ])

    This feature is wonderful but it is paramount if mongodb can enable us to use this query or something similar to update multiple documents from different collections with the one query instead of having to send and await each query one at a time as is currently the case.

    The truth is, mongodb only needs to enable this feature of being able to update multiple documents with one query from different collections and then…

  7. Serve API endpoint for MongoDB Compatibility Matrix

    This is a feature request for website API calls/endpoints to retrieve the MongoDB Compatibility matrix for each driver language. For example, NodeJS is located here in HTML format https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/current/compatibility/

    It would be helpful to have a programmatic endpoint for the same compat table results. This will help log parsers and aggregators to quickly identify applications and clients that are connecting to deployments with untested or incompatible client drivers.

  8. Provide a direct download for current versions of driver files/dependencies on the official MongoDB sites

    Note: This post was inspired by my attempts to find a direct download for the MongoDB Java driver, but I've left the category as "Unspecified" because it could apply to any driver download for which the official sites say to "Just use Maven/etc"

    Right now the documentation for the MongoDB Java driver (https://mongodb.github.io/mongo-java-driver/4.2/driver/getting-started/installation/) indicates that "The recommended way to get started using one of the drivers in your project is with a dependency management system." However, as far as I could tell from my own research, the official MongoDB sites have no official direct download link for the…

  9. Nearest read preference should take account of database load

    I understand it only take account of network latency however this node can have high load and would give a poor response. Instead, I wished the driver would contact the more distant network latency node that has less CPU/memory load.

  10. Add support for SSH Tunnel

    Similar to the request for SOCKS proxy support, it would be good to add support for SSH tunnels for drivers (since Compass supports this already).

    This can be useful for developers working remotely when company policy disallows whitelisting home IP addresses.
