    1. Considering the plan to upgrade MongoDB to version 7, it's advisable to consult IBM support directly for the most accurate and up-to-date information on Guardium compatibility, as the online documentation may not be regularly updated.
     
    2. When monitoring MongoDB, the choice between Agent-based or Universal connector depends on your specific requirements. For optimal performance and flexibility, evaluating factors like resource utilization, deployment preferences, and feature needs will help determine the best monitoring option for your MongoDB environment.
