At the present time, the internet is loaded with big data, big users, big complexity etc. and also becoming more complex day by day. NoSQL is answer of all these problems, It is not a traditional database management system, not even a relational database management system (RDBMS). NoSQL stands for “Not Only SQL”. NoSQL is a type of database that can handle and sort all type of unstructured, messy and complicated data. It is just a new way to think about the database.

Yes. MongoDB is a NoSQL database.

NoSQL databases, or “Not Only SQL” databases, are a type of database management system that differs from traditional relational database management systems (RDBMS) in the way they store and retrieve data. NoSQL databases are designed to handle a variety of data models, including document-oriented, key-value, wide-column store, and graph formats, among others. They are often chosen for their flexibility, scalability, and ability to handle large volumes of unstructured or semi-structured data.

MongoDB is indeed a NoSQL database. It is a document-oriented database that stores data in a flexible, JSON-like format called BSON (Binary JSON). Instead of using tables and rows as in relational databases, MongoDB uses collections and documents. Each document is a set of key-value pairs and can contain nested arrays or subdocuments, making it a suitable choice for handling complex and dynamic data structures. MongoDB is known for its scalability, high performance, and ease of development, making it a popular choice for applications with rapidly changing data requirements or large amounts of unstructured data.
