As the MongoDB module will soon be EOL, what the Monastery wisdom says about using MongoDB from Perl?

I inherited an in-house (rather critical and very well written) Perl application which uses MongoDB as a back end. Replacing this application with another one is not an option for now.

Should I start looking for another DB to completely replace MongoDB (which is a rather daunting task)? If yes, any suggestions?

Should i try to keep the application working using the last version (2.2.0) of the driver?

Any other suggestions?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
