Index

Core principles

Gluesync’s MongoDB agent uses and implements the MongoDB Kotlin SDK to connect and perform all the operations at the node/cluster level. Gluesync also supports MongoDB HA features as well as load balancing across multiple cluster nodes, thanks to automatic node discovery.

Change data capture

This agent makes use of the Change Streams API built-in in MongoDB to catch real-time data changes from MongoDB’s database starting from Database version 3.4 and above.

Supported version

With this agent, you can target any version of MongoDB starting from 3.0.

Change data capture

Works on any version of MongoDB starting from 3.4, to 4.2 is highly recommended due to performance optimizations around the Change Streams protocol and its indexing process.
