Hello,
thank you for your reply. The problem is not the compatibility of PDI 9.4 CE with MongoDB server itself. The question is related to the upgrade of the mongodb java driver that is wrapped in the pentaho mongodb plugin. Currently this plugin wraps mongodb java driver version 3.12 that implements the old MongoDB API.
Thanks,

Subject: PDI CE 9.4: updating MongoDB java driver to more recent versions
Hello everyone,
I have seen that the MongoDB Input/Output steps in PDI CE 9.4 use the mongodb plugin pentaho-mongodb-plugin-9.4.0.0-343 which in its turns it's using the mongo-java-driver-3.12.10. This driver is quite old and is based on the legacy API. Simply replacing the mongo-dava-driver-3.12.10.jar with a newer release (4.4 and above) is not working because it seems to me that some code must be migrated.
Do you know if there is a quick option (plug and play) to update the Mongo java driver? If not, which are the steps to go through in order to migrate the pentaho-mongodb-plugin such that it is compatible with the newer mongodb java driver?
Thank you
