            <title>[DOCS-15172] Make the Driver Compatibility Matrices more obvious in their support for connecting to &quot;unsupported&quot; versions</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-15172</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;Customers raise questions as a result of supportability for new versions of MongoDB from &quot;older&quot; drivers (such as &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/mongodb-5-0-support-in-mongocxx/152102&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/mongodb-5-0-support-in-mongocxx/152102&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is due to the compatibility matrices not clearly identifying that older drivers &quot;can still connect and interact with this version but newer features would not be supported&quot;. For example in &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/cxx/#compatibility&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/cxx/#compatibility&lt;/a&gt;, the C++ driver doesn&apos;t show ANY support for MongoDB 5.0, which is confusing to customers.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

We have been tracking this with these tickets:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;DOCSP-24482&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;DOCSP-24483&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;DOCSP-24481 &lt;span class=&quot;error&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;completed&amp;#93;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;p&gt;The Ruby driver&apos;s compat tables are here:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/ruby-driver/current/reference/driver-compatibility/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/ruby-driver/current/reference/driver-compatibility/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&apos;ve created ticket DOCSP-24617 to update them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For the C++ tables, could you elaborate on what needs to be added or changed?&lt;/p&gt;

Commercial support continues to receive cases from customers concerned that they may have issues as a result of their driver showing as &quot;not compatible&quot; with their version of MongoDB&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;/cc &lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=rachelle.palmer%40mongodb.com&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;rachelle.palmer@mongodb.com&quot;&gt;rachelle.palmer@mongodb.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="4523766" author="nathan.leniz" created="Tue, 3 May 2022 20:11:51 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;Apologies for not adding that detail. We plan to push the legacy versions to &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs-mongodbcom-staging.corp.mongodb.com/drivers/docsworker-xlarge/dotriff2/legacy-compatibility/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;this page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We&apos;ve also been experimenting slightly with the icons. If this is acceptable, we&apos;ll add a note to each compat table to look at the legacy page if they don&apos;t see their version. We&apos;ll also update the &quot;About compatibility&quot; page to reflect the new iconography.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="4522783" author="alex.bevilacqua" created="Tue, 3 May 2022 15:25:21 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=nathan.leniz%40mongodb.com&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;nathan.leniz@mongodb.com&quot;&gt;nathan.leniz@mongodb.com&lt;/a&gt; Option #3 looks good to me (just my 2 cents) as you can quickly verify that &quot;your app should still be able to connect&quot;, which is the recurring question from customers we want to answer.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="4522684" author="nathan.leniz" created="Tue, 3 May 2022 15:02:56 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=bernie%40mongodb.com&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;bernie@mongodb.com&quot;&gt;bernie@mongodb.com&lt;/a&gt; We&apos;ve done some brainstorming and I&apos;ve mocked up a few different approaches.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;One thing we&apos;d like to avoid is communicating information through colors since it presents an immediate accessibility issue. Looking at the different mocks, I&apos;m also starting to worry that the tables might be too busy?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Do you and the DBX folks have a strong preference here?&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="4419037" author="nathan.leniz" created="Thu, 17 Mar 2022 18:19:59 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=behackett&quot; class=&quot;user-hover&quot; rel=&quot;behackett&quot;&gt;behackett&lt;/a&gt; These tables cause a lot of churn for us. I like your idea, and would like to propose an addition to it. When a new server version is released, could we get an update from each team on what features are &lt;b&gt;not&lt;/b&gt; supported? Then we can add the asterisk as well as enumerate what new features aren&apos;t supported.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="4414343" author="behackett" created="Tue, 15 Mar 2022 22:03:23 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;For drivers (any driver) that haven&apos;t released explicit support for a particular server release could we just use the last driver version number as the compat release &lt;em&gt;with an * next to the version&lt;/em&gt; and have the * refer to a disclaimer that says something like &quot;This driver version is tested against this server release but may not support all of its features&quot; or something like that? We can go back and retroactively change the driver version number once a release with explicit support happens. &lt;/p&gt;</comment>
