MongoDB Connection Pool Proxy

Currently there is no Connection Pool proxy supported by MongoDB. With the ever increasing use of serverless and containers, clusters will need to be over provisioned in order to account for the increased connection counts. A better solution would be a Connection Pool proxy allowing for a many-to-one relation for connections to MongoDB. In the case of Lambda, this would reduce the number of Zombie connections (Connections that have been terminated on the Lambda side but are still open on the server side.)

    Having a built i connection pool proxy in MongoDB and Atlas would be a game changer and greatly simplify AWS Lambda, and Cloudflare worker based deployments, and probably a host of other server-less environments. This is a big bottleneck for us and a consistent pain point of using MongoDB.

    Agree, we would also require connection pooling. Similar to how RDS Proxy works in AWS
