You can use the renameCollection function of MongoDB to change the collection name.
There is no way to rename a sharded collection. You can copy all the docs to a new collection. Or create multiple collections based on a weekly/period date, and use as the current one. Then have your application always use the current one by name and change the name at each period break.
In MongoDB, you can rename a field when updating documents in a collection. To rename a field, call the $rename operator with the current name of the field and the new name. This renames the field in all matching documents that have a field with that name.
renameCollection() method is used to rename a collection. The new name of the collection. Enclose the string in quotes. If true, mongod drops the target of renameCollection prior to renaming the collection.
