MongoDB Server Security Update, December 2025
Nope. If two writes happen concurrently on different fields you'll lose one write, unless you lock. The storage layer just stores the data as a blob that gets overwritten every time, it doesn't support partial updates.

Of course it supports partial updates. It just requires you to know the difference between a document and a field, and model your data appropriately.
