| # MongoDB source (contrib) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Description | ||
|
|
||
| MongoDB data sources are [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com/) collections that can be used as a source for feature data. The `MongoDBSource` points at a MongoDB collection and provides the metadata Feast needs to read historical features from the offline store's collection. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Examples | ||
|
|
||
| Defining a MongoDB source: | ||
|
|
||
| ```python | ||
| from feast.infra.offline_stores.contrib.mongodb_offline_store.mongodb import ( | ||
| MongoDBSource, | ||
| ) | ||
|
|
||
| driver_stats_source = MongoDBSource( | ||
| name="driver_stats", | ||
| timestamp_field="event_timestamp", | ||
| created_timestamp_column="created_at", | ||
| ) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| The `name` field becomes the `feature_view` discriminator stored in every document in the `feature_history` collection. | ||
|
|
||
| Configuration options such as `connection_string`, `database`, and `collection` are inherited from the offline store configuration in `feature_store.yaml`. | ||
|
|
||
| The full set of configuration options is available [here](https://rtd.feast.dev/en/master/#feast.infra.offline_stores.contrib.mongodb_offline_store.mongodb.MongoDBSource). | ||
|
|
||
| ## Vector Search | ||
|
|
||
| The MongoDB online store supports [Atlas Vector Search](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/atlas-vector-search/), enabling similarity search over feature embeddings stored in MongoDB Atlas. This is powered by the `$vectorSearch` aggregation stage and requires MongoDB Atlas (or the `mongodb/mongodb-atlas-local` Docker image for local development). | ||
|
|
||
| See [PR #6344](https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/pull/6344) for full implementation details. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Configuration | ||
|
|
||
| Enable vector search in your `feature_store.yaml`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| project: my_project | ||
| provider: local | ||
| online_store: | ||
| type: mongodb | ||
| connection_string: mongodb+srv://<user>:<pass>@cluster.mongodb.net | ||

| vector_enabled: true | ||
| similarity: cosine # cosine | euclidean | dotProduct | ||
| vector_index_wait_timeout: 60 # seconds to wait for index to become queryable | ||
| vector_index_wait_poll_interval: 1.0 # seconds between polls | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Defining a Feature View with Vector Index | ||
|
|
||
| Mark embedding fields with `vector_index=True` and specify `vector_length`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```python | ||
| from feast import Entity, FeatureView, Field, FileSource | ||
| from feast.types import Array, Float32, Int64, String | ||
| from datetime import timedelta | ||
|
|
||
| item_embeddings = FeatureView( | ||
| name="item_embeddings", | ||
| entities=[Entity(name="item_id", join_keys=["item_id"])], | ||
| schema=[ | ||
| Field( | ||
| name="embedding", | ||
| dtype=Array(Float32), | ||
| vector_index=True, | ||
| vector_length=384, | ||
| vector_search_metric="cosine", | ||
| ), | ||
| Field(name="title", dtype=String), | ||
| Field(name="item_id", dtype=Int64), | ||
| ], | ||
| source=FileSource(path="items.parquet", timestamp_field="event_timestamp"), | ||
| ttl=timedelta(hours=24), | ||
| ) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| When `feast apply` (or `store.update()`) runs with `vector_enabled=True`, Atlas vector search indexes are automatically created for any field with `vector_index=True`. Indexes are also automatically dropped when feature views are removed. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Retrieving Documents via Vector Search | ||
|
|
||
| Use `retrieve_online_documents_v2()` to perform similarity search: | ||
|
|
||
| ```python | ||
| source = FeatureStore(repo_path=".") | ||
| results = store.retrieve_online_documents_v2( | ||
| config=repo_config, | ||
| table=item_embeddings, | ||
| requested_features=["embedding", "title"], | ||
| embedding=[0.1, 0.2, ...], # query vector | ||
| top_k=5, | ||
| ) | ||
|
|
||
| # Each result is a (event_timestamp, entity_key_proto, feature_dict) tuple. | ||

Choose a reason Spam Abuse Off Topic Outdated Duplicate Resolved Low QualityThe result of FeatureStore's version is OnlineResponse. I'd just remove these lines. Given the change, I suggest reviewing the comments below. They are about the implementation in MongoDB, which IS what they want to hear about (how it works), just not specific to the function above.

| # feature_dict includes a synthetic "distance" key with the vector search score. | ||
| for ts, entity_key, features in results: | ||
| print(features["title"].string_val, features["distance"].float_val) | ||
| ``` | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### How It Works | ||
|
|
||
| - **Index creation**: `update()` creates an Atlas vector search index named `<feature_view>__<field>__vs_index` for each vector-indexed field. It waits for the index to reach `READY` status before proceeding. | ||
| - **Query execution**: `retrieve_online_documents_v2()` builds a `$vectorSearch` aggregation pipeline with `numCandidates = max(top_k * 10, 100)` and the specified `limit`. | ||
| - **Score**: Results include a `distance` field populated from `$meta: "vectorSearchScore"`. | ||
| - **BSON compatibility**: Query vectors are coerced to native Python floats to avoid numpy serialization issues. | ||
| - **Idempotency**: Calling `update()` multiple times will not duplicate indexes. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Supported Types | ||
|
|
||
| MongoDB data sources support all eight primitive types (`bytes`, `string`, `int32`, `int64`, `float32`, `float64`, `bool`, `timestamp`) and their corresponding array types. Complex types such as `Map` and `Struct` are preserved through the MongoDB document model. | ||

| # MongoDB offline store (contrib) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Description | ||
|
|
||
| The MongoDB offline store provides support for reading [MongoDBSource](../data-sources/mongodb.md). | ||
| * Uses a single shared collection with a compound index for all FeatureViews, distinguished by a `feature_view` discriminator field. | ||
| * Entity dataframes can be provided as a Pandas dataframe. The offline store converts entity identifiers into serialized entity keys for efficient lookup against the collection. | ||

|
||
| ## Getting started | ||
|
|
||
| In order to use this offline store, you'll need to run `pip install 'feast[mongodb]'`. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Example | ||
|
|
||
| {% code title="feature_store.yaml" %} | ||
| ```yaml | ||
| project: my_project | ||
| registry: data/registry.db | ||
| provider: local | ||
| offline_store: | ||
| type: feast.infra.offline_stores.contrib.mongodb_offline_store.mongodb.MongoDBOfflineStore | ||
| connection_string: "mongodb+srv://user:pass@cluster.mongodb.net" # pragma: allowlist secret | ||
| database: feast | ||
| collection: feature_history | ||
| online_store: | ||
| type: mongodb | ||
| connection_string: "mongodb+srv://user:pass@cluster.mongodb.net" # pragma: allowlist secret | ||
| database_name: feast_online_store | ||
| collection_suffix: latest | ||
| client_kwargs: {} | ||
| ``` | ||
| {% endcode %} | ||
|
|
||
| The full set of configuration options is available in [MongoDBOfflineStoreConfig](https://rtd.feast.dev/en/master/#feast.infra.offline_stores.contrib.mongodb_offline_store.mongodb.MongoDBOfflineStoreConfig). | ||
|
|
||
| ## Data Model | ||
|
|
||
| The offline store uses a single shared collection (by default `feature_history`) that stores append-only historical feature rows for all feature views. Each document represents one observation of one entity for one FeatureView at a specific event timestamp: | ||
|
|
||
| ```json | ||
| { | ||
| "entity_id": "Binary(...)", | ||
| "feature_view": "driver_stats", | ||
| "event_timestamp": "ISODate(2024-01-15T12:00:00Z)", | ||
| "created_at": "ISODate(2024-01-15T12:01:00Z)", | ||
| "features": { | ||
| "conv_rate": 0.72, | ||
| "acc_rate": 0.91, | ||
| "avg_daily_trips": 14 | ||
| } | ||
| } | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Key properties: | ||
|
|
||
| * **Append-only**: Historical data is treated as immutable; corrections are written as new rows with newer `created_at` timestamps rather than in-place updates. | ||
| * **Time-series friendly**: `event_timestamp` represents when the feature value was observed; `created_at` is used as a tie-breaker when multiple observations share the same event timestamp. | ||
| * **Feature grouping by FeatureView**: `feature_view` identifies which FeatureView the row belongs to, so a single collection can host multiple FVs. | ||
|
|
||
| A single compound index supports all major query patterns: | ||
|
|
||
| ``` | ||
| (entity_id ASC, feature_view ASC, event_timestamp DESC, created_at DESC) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| This index enables efficient range scans over entities and feature views, while ensuring that the most recent observation per `(entity_id, feature_view)` is seen first during aggregation. The index is created lazily on first use and cached per connection string. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Key Optimizations | ||
|
|
||
| * **Scoring vs. training paths**: When each entity appears only once in `entity_df` (scoring/inference — one feature lookup per entity), server-side `$group $first` efficiently returns the single latest value per entity. When the same entity appears at multiple timestamps (training — building a dataset with many historical snapshots per entity), the store retrieves all candidate rows and uses `pd.merge_asof` to select the correct point-in-time value for each request timestamp. | ||
| * **Two-level chunking**: `CHUNK_SIZE` (50,000 rows) controls the size of intermediate DataFrames in memory; `MONGO_BATCH_SIZE` (10,000 entity IDs) limits the query size sent to MongoDB. | ||
