+
+### Bugfixes
+
+This is a complete list of the
+[merged pull requests](https://github.com/eclipse-ditto/ditto/pulls?q=is%3Apr+milestone%3A3.5.10).
+
+#### Updating used `pekko-persistence-mongo` and mongo driver to latest versions
+
+The used Pekko persistence plugin [pekko-persistence-mongo](https://github.com/scullxbones/pekko-persistence-mongo) provides
+in its newest version `1.2.0` more control of the MongoDB `writeConcern` to use.  
+Previously, e.g. the configured [Acknowledged](https://github.com/scullxbones/pekko-persistence-mongo?tab=readme-ov-file#writeconcern) 
+write concern caused a different behavior than in MongoDB 5 when using Ditto with MongoDB 6.  
+
+Previously, the configured `Acknowledged` writeConcern only required the MongoDB primary to acknowledge the write operation.  
+With MongoDB 6, this behavior seem to have changed to use the configured "default write concern" of the database, which by
+default is `"majority"`.
+
+Ditto defaults to this `Acknowledged` writeConcern, so when updating from MongoDB 5 to 6 an increase in insert performance
+is probable, although the writes are then performed with higher consistency guarantees.
+
+Ditto 3.5.10 provides updates the `pekko-persistence-mongo` to version `1.2.0` and provides with this update the ability 
+to also configure 3 additional writeConcerns:
+* `W1` - requires that the MongoDB primary acknowledges the write
+* `W2` - requires that the MongoDB primary and an additional secondary acknowledges the write
+* `W3` - requires that the MongoDB primary and two additional secondaries acknowledges the write
+
+Where `W1` should provide the behavior as `Acknowledged` before: only requiring the acknowledgement from the MongoDB primary.
+
+As part of this update, also the MongoDB driver was updated to version `5.1.1`.
