Description

Hi,

It would be great to see a native connector for MongoDB that does not require the BI connector. The BI connector is proprietary and is only allowed to be used under license for certain versions of Mongo.

It would be much better for a generic connector, this could then be extended to work across the other flavours of Mongo such as DocumentDB and Cosmos.

Thanks

Mark

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the existing MongoDB BI connector implementation and design a native connector that directly communicates with MongoDB using its wire protocol or official driver. Consider supporting DocumentDB and Cosmos DB variants.
