Double-zone deployment of instances that use cloud disks only in specific regions | New feature ApsaraDB for MongoDB instances that use cloud disks can use the double-zone deployment mode only in the following regions:
| 2024-10-25 | |
SRV HA endpoints supported by replica set instances | New feature ApsaraDB for MongoDB replica set instances support SRV high-availability (HA) endpoints. SRV HA endpoints can simplify the maintenance and management of instances. You do not need to modify the endpoints when nodes are added or removed. Your client can interact with the instances without service interruptions, which simplifies the design and maintenance of your application. | 2024-10-25 | |
Configure cross-region backup for an instance | New feature To ensure data security, ApsaraDB for MongoDB provides the cross-region backup and restoration feature to automatically back up data to a different region. | 2024-10-15 |
August 2024
Feature | Description | Release date | References |
Migration of an instance that uses cloud disks to a different zone | New feature ApsaraDB for MongoDB allows you to migrate an instance that uses cloud disks to a different zone. You can migrate an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance to a different zone in the region to which the current zone belongs. After an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance is migrated to a different zone, the attributes, specifications, and endpoints of the instance remain unchanged. | 2024-08-15 |

Feature | Description | Release date | References |
Restarting of nodes in an instance that uses cloud disks | New feature Nodes in an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance that uses cloud disks can be restarted. If the number of connection to a database in the instance reaches the upper limit or a database in the instance experiences degraded performance, you can attempt to manually restart the nodes. | 2024-06-20 | |
ESSD AutoPL disks | New storage type Enterprise SSD (ESSD) AutoPL disks are provided by ApsaraDB for MongoDB. ESSD AutoPL disks are compatible with all features of ESSDs and provide the same baseline performance as PL1 ESSDs. In addition, ESSD AutoPL disks provide burstable I/O performance based on ESSDs and decouple the I/O performance from the storage capacity. Therefore, ESSD AutoPL disks are more cost-effective and are ideal for businesses that experience surges in I/O operations. | 2024-06-06 |

Feature | Description | Release date | References |
Restoration of databases in a sharded cluster instance that uses cloud disks | New feature You can restore one or more databases in an ApsaraDB for MongoDB sharded cluster instance that uses cloud disks to the original instance. If you accidentally delete a single collection or document, you can perform the operation to restore the collection or document. | 2024-05-15 | |
Configuration changes of multiple mongos, shard, and ConfigServer nodes in batch | New feature A configuration change task can be started for mongos, shard, and ConfigServer nodes in an ApsaraDB for MongoDB sharded cluster instance. The task involves the following operations:
| 2024-05-15 | |
Configuration changes of a ConfigServer component | New feature The specifications and storage capacity of the ConfigServer component in an ApsaraDB for MongoDB sharded cluster instance that uses cloud disks can be changed. | 2024-05-15 | |
Updates to the maximum number of connections | Feature optimization ApsaraDB for MongoDB adjusted the maximum number of connections to instances of some specifications on May 14, 2024. By default, the new maximum number of connections applies to ApsaraDB for MongoDB instances that are purchased after the adjustment. For existing ApsaraDB for MongoDB instances, the new maximum number of connections takes effect after the instances are restarted. The adjustment does not affect other services of ApsaraDB for MongoDB. | 2024-05-15 | |
SSL encryption supported by sharded cluster instances | New feature The SSL encryption feature is supported by ApsaraDB for MongoDB sharded cluster instances that use ESSDs. The SSL encryption feature can encrypt connections at the transport layer to increase data security and ensure data integrity. | 2024-05-15 | |
Long-term retention for the backup files of an instance | New feature A backup retention policy can be configured for an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance that uses ESSDs after the instance is released. You can specify that all backup sets are deleted or retained after an instance is released, or that the last backup set is retained after the instance is released. | 2024-05-15 | |
Switching of the VPC and vSwitch of an instance | New feature The virtual private cloud (VPC) and vSwitch of an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance that uses ESSDs can be switched. | 2024-05-15 |
March 2024
Feature | Description | Release date | References |
SRV HA endpoints supported by sharded cluster instances that use cloud disks | New feature SRV HA endpoints are supported by ApsaraDB for MongoDB sharded cluster instances that use cloud disks. SRV HA endpoints can simplify the maintenance and management of sharded cluster instances. You do not need to modify the endpoints when mongos nodes are added or removed. Your client can interact with the instances without service interruptions, which simplifies the design and maintenance of your application. | 2024-03-15 |
February 2024
Feature | Description | Release date | References |
IP whitelist templates | New feature IP whitelist templates are supported. If you want to configure an IP address whitelist for multiple ApsaraDB for MongoDB instances, you can create an IP whitelist template and associate the template with multiple MongoDB instances. If you want to modify an IP address whitelist of an instance, you need only to modify the template. This way, the new settings automatically take effect on the instances associated with the template. This simplifies the operations performed to configure the whitelist. | 2024-02-27 | |
Audit log | Feature optimization ApsaraDB for MongoDB instances do not need to be restarted when the audit log feature is enabled or disabled and operation types for audit logs are modified. | 2024-02-01 |
