Mar 1, 2026March 2026 monthly summary for percona/percona-server-mongodb: Delivered two major capabilities that improve reliability, upgrade safety, and testing coverage for distributed viewless timeseries in sharded deployments. DDL Lock system overhaul moved to shard_role and introduced a locking mechanism during viewless timeseries upgrade/downgrade and CollMod on replica sets, reducing upgrade risk and ensuring consistency across nodes. Implemented comprehensive viewless timeseries support testing, removing feature-flag dependencies in FCV-related tests and validating split/move/merge operations across upgrades/downgrades. These changes, alongside expanded CI/test coverage, enable safer upgrades, lower downtime, and improved data integrity for time-series workloads.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 milestone: delivered a targeted set of cross-cutting improvements for percona-server-mongodb to enhance stability, consistency, and compatibility during feature rollouts and upgrades. Key work includes feature flags governing raw data operations and OFCV-related replication to enable safer transitions across MongoDB deployments, and VersionContext propagation across shards to maintain version alignment in distributed operations. In addition, data integrity and cross-version compatibility were strengthened by preventing VersionContext serialization when FCV is missing and by skipping unnecessary index checks for buckets namespaces across binary versions. These changes reduce upgrade risk, improve operational reliability, and demonstrate strength in feature governance, distributed systems, and FCV/version management.

Mar 1, 2025February 2025-03 monthly summary focusing on key accomplishments and business value for percona/percona-server-mongodb. Key features delivered: - FCV-aware Feature Flag System and VersionContext Integration: Consolidated FCV-aware checks across feature flags in query_feature_flags.idl and storage_parameters.idl; introduced VersionContext and updated internal scaffolding and tests to ensure feature flags are evaluated against the operation FCV across pipelines and queries. Notable commits include updates to SERVER-101566, SERVER-101562, SERVER-101559, SERVER-101567, and FCV-related test initializations (SERVER-101608, SERVER-32985) and FCV metadata integration (SERVER-99558, SERVER-91231). Also includes optimization of VersionContext::getOperationFCV (SERVER-101679). - Sharded DDL FCV propagation and visibility: Propagated the operation FCV in sharded DDL workflows and current operation details to improve consistency and debuggability. Commits include SERVER-99557, SERVER-101888. Major bugs fixed: - Sharding robustness against stale indexes during migration: Fixed issues where sharding an unsharded collection could fail if a stale unique index existed on the primary shard; improved index cloning during migration (commit SERVER-100844). - Timeseries path write lock correctness: Corrected lock acquisition ordering in the legacy timeseries write path when the timeseries view is missing to prevent deadlocks and ensure writes proceed (commit SERVER-102597). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Increased reliability, consistency, and debuggability for FCV-related behavior across sharded deployments; improved migration resilience and transactional safety for timeseries writes; enhanced observability with FCV propagation in currentOp and request metadata. - Clear business value: more predictable feature rollout and safer shard migrations, reducing operational risk and speeding issue diagnosis. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Feature flag architecture and FCV semantics, VersionContext design and optimization, operation FCV gating, sharded DDL handling, and timeseries write path correctness; improved test scaffolding and metadata instrumentation to validate FCV behavior across pipelines.
