| Description |

It would be great of the driver could auto-discover mongos routers so that they do not need to be added to connection strings as routers are added to a sharded system |

Currently, the server doesn't support the ability to enable this feature. When/if the server does, we can re-open this or open a new ticket. |

An alternative approach that would have appealing operational benefits, but isn't currently supported, is to deploy a set of mongos'es behind a load balancer. I'm linking to a related ticket suggesting that we support that configuration. |

Hi Will, Thanks for the idea. There is lots of interest in this. There is also a lot of problems that need to be resolved and it isn't solely a driver issue and would likely need some server support as well. Some questions off the top of my head... 1. How many mongos' do we discover? There could be hundreds spread across the world. The driver is constructed in such a way that adding this in wouldn't be difficult, but some steps are needed before we do this. Craig |
