NOTICE: Dropping MongoDB Support in Strapi v4

[derrickmehaffy]

Hello Everyone,

We wanted to make you aware that we will be dropping MongoDB support in the Strapi v4 tentatively scheduled to have a beta release in late summer 2021. I won't provide the full context here but if you want to read through the following forum thread to get the context and provide feedback please do.

As a foot note to this, we are not making this decision lightly and we understand that this may upset a few of our users. All we ask is you please keep in mind our Code of Conduct

Thank you!

Marking as closed as it's clear the support for MongoDB has been removed in v4 and we have no plans to support MongoDB or any noSQL database in the foreseeable future.
