Environment

CloudBeaver version: 25.3.0 (Docker deployment)
MongoDB version: 7.0 (Docker, same network as CloudBeaver)
Redis version: 7.2 (Docker, same network as CloudBeaver)
OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Problem Summary
I'm struggling to properly deploy and configure MongoDB and Redis connections in CloudBeaver 25.3.0. Below are the key issues I'm facing:

MongoDB Driver Configuration Issues:
- Defined default="127.0.0.1" for the host property in the driver config, but the web UI still shows localhost (tried override-default="true" but it didn't work).
- The driver config's config-properties don't match the web UI (extra fields like "Default catalog" appear, even though I didn't define them).
- Connection failures (e.g., UnknownHostException for the MongoDB container name, even though they're in the same Docker network).
Redis Support:
- CloudBeaver 25.3.0 doesn't show Redis as a built-in data source. How to add Redis support (driver configuration, JAR dependencies)?

Steps I've Tried

Modified the MongoDB driver config (added override-default="true", renamed driver ID to avoid built-in conflicts).
Ensured MongoDB/Redis containers are in the same Docker network as CloudBeaver.
Cleared CloudBeaver's driver cache (drivers.xml and workspace metadata).

Questions

What's the correct way to configure the MongoDB driver in CloudBeaver 25.3.0 to:
- Force the host default value to 127.0.0.1 (instead of localhost)?
- Make the web UI match the config-properties I defined (hide extra fields)?
How to add Redis support to CloudBeaver 25.3.0 (driver setup, required JARs, config examples)?

Attachments

MongoDB driver config XML (as used in my setup).
Screenshot of the CloudBeaver web UI showing mismatched config fields.

Hello, @buxiuzhang!

Thanks for your question🦫

Please note that MongoDB and Redis are fully supported in CloudBeaver Enterprise.
CloudBeaver Community Edition does not provide official support for these NoSQL databases.

If you need stable MongoDB/Redis functionality, we recommend using CloudBeaver Enterprise or trying it via the 2-week trial version.

Thank you for your understanding💙
