The engine behind MongoDB Search and Vector Search, mongot, is now available in Public Preview under the Server Side Public License (SSPL). By making mongot source available, we’re bringing a key MongoDB technology closer to our developer community. Now you can: • Run the same search and vector search capabilities across any environment, whether MongoDB Atlas, on-premise, or hybrid. • For sensitive workloads, inspect the source code to fully understand how queries are executed. • Build mongot fr

Let’s talk about the future of search. What if you could combine the precision of keyword search with the semantic power of vector search, in a single query? 🚀 Introducing native hybrid search in MongoDB Atlas, now in public preview. With the new $rankFusion stage in Atlas Search, you can merge full-text and vector search results into a single ranked list using reciprocal rank fusion (RRF). That means smarter, more relevant results—without bolting on a separate vector database or search engine.
