Autocomplete seems like one of the easiest features to build. You take the user's input, loop through your list of options, and filter anything that starts with the same prefix: const matches = words.filter(w => w.startsWith(prefix)); And that works for small lists of text. But once your dataset gets large, or your completions come from structured text (like user.address.city or $gte), simple loops start to fall short.

Developers can now use search and vector search functionality in MongoDB Community Edition and Enterprise Server. These capabilities were previously only available in the Atlas cloud service. During the MongoDB.local NYC conference, MongoDB announced that search and vector search will be available for local installations. The previews are intended for development and testing. Until now, developers and organizations that wanted to use these features had to rely on the fully managed MongoDB Atlas cloud service.
