Coming Soon: An updated bulkWrite command

MongoDB 8.0 introduces a new bulkWrite command to perform many insert, update, and delete operations on multiple collections in a single request (the current bulkWrite method only allows for one collection to be modified). We’re actively working on adding support for this feature into the JVM Drivers, and plan to include support in our next minor release of the JVM Drivers (v5.3.0).
