Release Highlights¶

This release of Percona Distribution for MongoDB includes improvements and bug fixes, provided by MongoDB and included in Percona Server for MongoDB. The most notable from them are the following:

Improved the performance of inserts into unique indexes
Prevented dropping empty path component from elemMatch path during index selection
Avoided sending the “keyValue” field to drivers on duplicate key error
Disallowed the use of the allowSpeculativeMajorityReads flag for the find command in transactions

Percona Backup for MongoDB 2.0.2 fixes the usability issues for applications operating with it by providing the error messages for the status output in the JSON format.
