The interface can be enabled on clusters at M10 and above that run MongoDB 6.0 or later, so eligible deployments do not need a federated database instance. Operators can switch it on or off per cluster through the Atlas UI or Atlas Administration API, and manage schemas with MongoDB SQL Schema Builder CLI. The feature works with both Atlas Core Database Edition and Atlas Infinite Database Edition; the latter remains in public preview. The SQL Interface API endpoints are themselves in preview, and requests need a specified preview media type in the Accept header.","content_kind":"author_paraphrase","explanation":{"feature":"Atlas dedicated clusters running MongoDB 6.0 or later can now use the SQL Interface without a federated database instance.","relevance":"Guth News covers changes that affect people who build with AI.
