Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) is now available as a specialized database skill in the Agent Toolkit for AWS. With this skill, AI coding agents can set up, manage, migrate, optimize, and troubleshoot Amazon DocumentDB clusters using step-by-step best-practice workflows, reducing errors and helping developers move faster without needing to look up DocumentDB operations guidance manually. The Amazon DocumentDB skill covers seven workflows: cluster provisioning, schema design, MongoDB compatibility assessment, DMS-based migration with change data capture, performance tuning, a 41-check well-architected review, and major version upgrades. When paired with the AWS MCP Server, agents can execute AWS CLI commands and run diagnostic queries with IAM-based guardrails, CloudTrail audit logging, and sandboxed execution. The skill also works standalone via the AWS CLI for teams that prefer local execution. The Amazon DocumentDB skill is available at no additional charge as part of the Agent Toolkit for AWS. To get started, see the Amazon DocumentDB skill on GitHub or browse the Agent Toolkit Quick Start guide. For more information about Amazon DocumentDB, see the Amazon DocumentDB Developer Guide.

This week brings an array of innovations spanning from generative AI capabilities to enhancements of foundational services. Whether you’re building AI-powered applications, managing databases, or optimizing your cloud infrastructure, these updates help build more advanced, robust, and flexible applications. Last week’s launches Here are the launches that got my attention this week: Amazon DocumentDB – […]

Today, Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) announces a new query planner, featuring advanced query optimization capabilities and improved performance. PlannerVersion 2.0 for Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) 5.0 delivers up to 10x performance improvement over the prior version when using find and update operators with indexes. Performance improvements primarily come from using more optimal index plans and enabling index scan support for operators such as negation operators ($neq, $nin) and nested $elementMatch. PlannerVersion 2.0 queries run faster through better cost estimation techniques, optimized algorithms, and enhanced stability. PlannerVersion 2.0 also simplifies query syntax. For example, you no longer need to provide explicit hints for $regex queries to utilize indexes. PlannerVersion 2.0 is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon DocumentDB 5.0 is supported. You can enable it by simply modifying the corresponding parameter in your cluster parameter group. The change does not require a cluster restart or cause any downtime. If needed, you can easily revert to using the legacy query planner. To learn more about the new query planner, see Getting Started with New Query Planner.

AWS Graviton4-based R8g database instances are now generally available for Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility). R8g instances are powered by AWS Graviton4 processors and feature the latest DDR5 memory, making it ideal for memory-intensive workloads. These instances are built on the AWS Nitro System, which offloads CPU virtualization, storage, and networking functions to dedicated hardware and software to enhance the performance and security of your workloads. Customers can get started with R8g instances through the AWS Management Console, CLI, and SDK by modifying their existing Amazon DocumentDB database cluster or creating a new one. R8g instances are available for Amazon DocumentDB 5.0 on both Standard and IO-Optimized cluster storage configurations. For more information including region availability visit our pricing page and documentation.

Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) Serverless, an on-demand, auto-scaling configuration for DocumentDB, is now available on version 8.0. Amazon DocumentDB Serverless automatically scales capacity up or down in fine-grained increments based on your application's demand, offering up to 90% cost savings compared to provisioning for peak capacity. DocumentDB 8.0 improves query latency by up to 7x and compression ratio by up to 5x, while adding compatibility with MongoDB API versions 6.0, 7.0, and 8.0. It also introduces enhanced vector search with up to 30x faster index builds, new aggregation stages and operators, and support for collation and views. DocumentDB Serverless is available for both new and existing clusters on Amazon DocumentDB 8.0. You can use the in-place major version upgrade (MVU) to convert your Amazon DocumentDB 5.0 clusters to Amazon DocumentDB 8.0 clusters.

Amazon DocumentDB now offers customers the option to use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses on new and existing clusters. Customers moving to IPv6 can simplify their network stack by running their databases on a dual-stack network that supports both IPv4 and IPv6. IPv6 increases the number of available addresses and customers no longer need to manage overlapping IPv4 address spaces in their VPCs (Virtual Private Cloud). Customers can standardize their applications on the new version of Internet Protocol by moving to dual-stack mode (supporting both IPv4 and IPv6) with a few clicks in the AWS Management Console or directly using the AWS CLI. Amazon DocumentDB is a fully managed, native JSON database that makes it simple and cost-effective to operate critical document workloads at virtually any scale without managing infrastructure. Amazon DocumentDB support for IPv6 is generally available on version 4.0 and 5.0 in AWS Regions listed in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/documentdb/latest/developerguide/vpc-clusters.html#dual-stack-availability. To learn more about configuring your environment for IPv6, please refer to https://docs.aws.amazon.com/documentdb/latest/developerguide/vpc-docdb.html.

AWS Backup now supports copying Amazon DocumentDB backups across AWS Regions and storing them in logically air-gapped vaults in nine additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Hong Kong, Jakarta, Melbourne, Osaka), Europe (Spain, Stockholm, Zurich), Africa (Cape Town), and Israel (Tel Aviv). With cross-Region copy now available in these Regions, you can copy DocumentDB backups into and out of them using backup plans or on-demand copy jobs. This helps you meet disaster recovery, business continuity, and compliance requirements. You can also copy DocumentDB backups to a logically air-gapped vault in these Regions to store immutable, isolated backups that are locked by default and encrypted using AWS owned or customer-managed keys. Share vaults for recovery using AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) and protect vault access during account compromise with Multi-party approval, reducing recovery time from a data loss event. To get started, visit the AWS Backup console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or AWS SDKs. For a complete list of supported Regions and features, visit the AWS Backup documentation. To learn more about logically air-gapped vaults, visit the product page and pricing page.

Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) now supports R8g.24xlarge and R8g.48xlarge database instances. R8g instances are powered by AWS Graviton4 processors and feature DDR5 memory, enabling customers to achieve higher throughput and support larger working sets in memory. With R8g.24xlarge (96 vCPUs, 768 GiB memory) and R8g.48xlarge (192 vCPUs, 1,536 GiB memory), customers can run more demanding workloads such as high-concurrency transactional applications, large-scale document processing, and memory-intensive operational workloads. Customers can get started with R8g.24xlarge and R8g.48xlarge instances through the AWS Management Console, CLI, and SDK by modifying their existing Amazon DocumentDB database cluster or creating a new one. R8g instances are available for Amazon DocumentDB 5.0+ on both Standard and IO-Optimized cluster storage configurations.
