MongoDB Atlas Search and Vector Search let developers run complex search queries and build AI-powered applications directly inside MongoDB, without managing a separate search infrastructure. It is a product used by a large and growing number of customers who rely on it being fast, reliable, and available.

Its purpose is to own the foundational layer that keeps Atlas Search stable and scalable, and to give the engineers building search features the tools they need to move faster and ship with more confidence.
