I've an app with Spring Boot 1.5.4.RELEASE and need to connect it to Mongo Server v5.0. To do that Mongo Java Driver 3.12.x is required.

The application only use the Spring MongoTemplate.

I know the Mongo Driver is inside of Spring Data, but I can force the upgrade the Driver only. So, is it safe to do that?

Is there any compatibillity issue and documentation related to this?

I already tried and no error seems to appear but I can't really mesure it.

Thanks
