      Update Backpressure release notes to state (note the added hyperlink):

      Improved performance for MongoDB 9.0's Intelligent Workload Management (IWM) by only retrying overload errors when expected to not worsen server conditions.

      Hyperlink: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/intelligent-workload-management/ 

      For any changelog updates, please make those changes as well, but you do not need to make a release just for those changes.

      Summary

      All driver teams shipped the same sentence in their backpressure release notes:

      Improved performance for MongoDB 9.0's Intelligent Workload Management (IWM) by only retrying overload errors when expected to not worsen server conditions.

      This ticket retroactively updates that sentence in each driver's published release notes so the phrase "MongoDB 9.0's Intelligent Workload Management" is a hyperlink to the IWM landing page:

      MongoDB 9.0's Intelligent Workload Management (IWM)

      Updated sentence:

      Improved performance for MongoDB 9.0's Intelligent Workload Management (IWM) by only retrying overload errors when expected to not worsen server conditions.

      Timing (do not publish early)

      • The IWM 9.0 docs, including the landing page, publish the evening of September 28, 2026 (per Anika Malhotra / Yogesh Mahajan, Docs). The landing page URL above returns nothing until then.
      • The IWM 9.0 rollout target is September 29, 2026.
      • The release note update must not go live before September 29, 2026. Prepare the change now, but hold merging/publishing until the landing page is live.
      • Target end for this ticket is September 30, 2026.

      Motivation

      Who is the affected end user?

      Users reading driver release notes to understand the new overload error / backpressure behavior. Stakeholders: all driver teams, Docs (Anika Malhotra), IWM product (Yogesh Mahajan).

      How does this affect the end user?

      Without the link, readers have no path from the release note to an explanation of what IWM is or how overload errors behave. The link gives them the canonical landing page.

      How likely is it that this problem or use case will occur?

      Main path. Every user reading the release notes for the backpressure change encounters this sentence.

      If the problem does occur, what are the consequences and how severe are they?

      Minor. Confusion about the feature and where to learn more; no functional impact.

      Is this issue urgent?

      Time-boxed. The update should land on or shortly after September 29, 2026, once the landing page is live, and not before.

      Is this ticket required by a downstream team?

      Requested in coordination with Docs (DOCSP-61878) so release notes and the landing page launch together.

      Is this ticket only for tests?

      No. Documentation/release-notes change only; no code or test changes.

      Acceptance Criteria

      • Each driver's published release notes for the backpressure change link the phrase "MongoDB 9.0's Intelligent Workload Management" to http://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/intelligent-workload-management/
      • The rest of the sentence is unchanged.
      • No driver publishes the updated note before September 29, 2026.
      • Link is verified to resolve once the landing page is live.
