    At MongoDB World last week, we announced that faster counts are now available with sharded collections. 


    We also announced a feature called Stored Source Fields which help you achieve faster post-aggregation performance. You can use this feature to experience faster sorting with Atlas Search. 


    You can read more about these two features here.


    After trying Stored Source Fields, if it does not meet your performance requirements - please vote on this new feedback item. 

  2. Faster Pagination

    I would like be able to paginate through search results faster.

    Performant sequential pagination in Atlas Search is now available on MongoDB clusters 6.0.13+ and 7.0.5+ to power Infinite Scroll, Load More, and Next/Previous Page application experiences. To specify where in your Atlas Search results to start returning results from, 1) generate Base64-encoded tokens for each document within your results using the new $meta keyword searchSequenceToken, and 2) use that token as a point of reference with the new searchBefore and searchAfter options within the $search stage. 


    For use cases not addressed by Sequential Pagination, please vote here.

  3. Perform a search over multiple collections

    Right now you can only search over one collection. I'd like to be able to search over several collections at the same time.

    Leverage $unionWith and $lookup to run search queries against multiple collections or create a materialized view prior to indexing. View tutorials here. 

  4. The equals operator should support numeric datatypes

    Currently, for querying on "number" datatypes, we can only use "range" or "near" operators. The "equals" operator supports querying only "boolean" and "objectId" values, and not numeric values.

    If we want to do equality based matching for number datatypes, then we can leverage "range" using "gt" and "lt" to find it. However this might be sub-optimal in some cases (such as when performing equality match on decimals).

    Therefore, this is a feature request for having equals operator support numeric datatypes (in addition to boolean and objectId).

  5. Faster Sorting with Atlas Search

    I am looking to achieve a faster sort when using Atlas Search.

    Please comment if you tried Stored Source Fields and it did not meet the performance you were looking for.

  6. Allow Atlas Search indexes to be restored across clusters

    Currently, when an Atlas backup snapshot from one environment is restored to another environment, it does not transfer or replicate the Atlas Search indexes from the source cluster to the destination cluster. As a result, after the snapshot is restored, the Atlas Search indexes have to be manually created on the collections in the destination cluster.

    This is a request for a functionality that will allow a snapshot-restore from one cluster to another to also replicate the Atlas Search indexes from the source cluster to the destination cluster.

  10. I need to be able to search for dates and numbers in arrays

    I have sets of results which contain dates and I need to be able to search from within them. For example:

    {
      experience: [
        { name: "Abc", startDate: ISODate("2019-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"), startDate: ISODate("2020-01-01T00:00:00.000Z") },
        { name: "Xyz", startDate: ISODate("2018-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"), startDate: ISODate("2019-01-01T00:00:00.000Z") }
      ]
    }
    

    So I need to be able to do a near search across experience.startDate values, for example.

    The Date mapping documentation (https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/reference/atlas-search/index-definitions/#date) says:

    A date cannot be indexed if it is part of an array.

    And while the number documentation doesn't mention the same restriction by experimentation I have found it has the same resriction (strings dont…

  11. Allow autocomplete to work with special characters and Asia languages

    Hello,

    We are now using Atlas Search, with a deep dive in this feature, we found out that it will be very cool to support "special characters" (such as @,-) and "Asia languages (such as Chinese)" for autocomplete. I think this is a requirement for many world wide companies. We can't allow a search engine which only cover a part of our clients because our business is with people form the whole world.

    Thank you in advance,

    Currently, one can't use the autocomplete type to index fields whose value is an array of strings. This is a feature request to allow autocomplete indexing and searching on an array of strings.

  14. Allow autocomplete to work with email addresses.

    At the moment, an autocomplete index does not tokenize the "@" in email addresses. So when using an autocomplete search on an email address field, the search breaks as soon as the "@" is entered.

    I started a thread in the community about this very issue.

  16. Functionality that provides details of how a score was calculated for an individual document

    Every document returned by an Atlas Search query is assigned a score based on relevance. Many factors can influence a document's score, including the position of the search term in the document, the frequency of occurrence of the search term in the document, the type of operator the query uses, the type of analyzer the query uses, etc.

    We do have an explain functionality in Atlas Search, which returns information about the $search query plan and execution statistics. The results returned by explain("executionStats") has a section on score, which provides statistics related to scoring documents in the result set. However,…

    [Changelog] Added scoreDetails boolean option to retrieve a detailed breakdown of the score for each document in the query results.

  17. Metric for Displaying Search Index Consistency Lag

    I would like a metric that shows me what the latency is between the state of the MongoDB collection and the Search index in Atlas.

    The difference between the optime of the collection and the optime of the Search index would be the latency. Please consider exposing this metric.

  18. support for the storage and high speed search of dense vectors (i.e. word embeddings)

    One feature I would like to see in mongoDB is the support for the storage and high speed search of dense vectors (i.e. word embeddings). This feature, in combination with full text search, would bring mongoDB within parity with Elasticsearch and help us simplify our architectures for these types of solutions.

  19. Support highlighting with autocomplete operator

    Currently, highlighting is supported only with search, term, compound, and span operators, and this is documented in the highlighting documentation. Therefore, if highlighting is used with the autocomplete operator, then it results in an error like this:

    "Highlights can not be generated. Path: "####" is not stored statically or dynamically indexed."

    This is a feature request to add support for highlighting with the autocomplete operator.

  20. Wildcard Atlas Search

    We put a large amount of data inside of Atlas Search but don't always know where a field actually exists. For example we might have a field that is indexed but is several objects deep, and without knowing the path notation to that field we can't find it.

    For example instead of

    path: products.christmas.decorations.tree.ornaments
    query: globes

    It would be great if we could do something like

    path: products.*
    query: globes
