In December 2024, no new user-facing features were shipped for percona/percona-server-mongodb. The focus was on stability and reliability improvements, addressing two key robustness bugs in cluster topology and maintenance workflows. Specifically, we enabled interruptibility for the OldestActiveTxnTimestamp thread during step up/stepdown and added retry logic for shutdown validation when replica set state changes occur. These changes reduce risk of deadlocks, improve resilience during topology transitions, and lower operational downtime for maintenance and upgrades.
