The future is now! Are you ready to upgrade your staging Replica Set to MongoDB 2.4.0-rc0 in preparation of the 2.4.0 release? Or, if you ready, we can even upgrade your production database.

To upgrade, please send your database name to support@mongohq.com.

Run MongoDB 2.4.0-rc0 on MongoHQ today. On any MongoHQ paid plan, you can use the new 2.4.x features (full-text search, updated aggregation features, and newly optimized geospatial indexes, all backed by the V8 engine). For a refresher of MongoDB 2.4.0 features, take a look at:

*To upgrade, please send your database name to support@mongohq.com. *We will upgrade your database as quickly as possible. The upgrade process will require a quick restart of your database; then, you will be off and running. MongoDB 2.4.0 will become the default version when the production release is made available.

To test MongoDB 2.4.0-rc0 in a non-production environment, our Sandbox plans called “Dharma Experimental” are by-default running the latest release candidate. We treat our Sandbox plans like free bread; please, have as many as you like, and keep testing.
