MongoDB

What is MongoDB ?

MongoDB is a cross-platform document-oriented database program.

This means it does not use relational database models, but instead is described as a NoSQL database, which uses JSON-like documents with optional schemas.

Which means that all information stored in MongoDB is based on documents and these documents have no defined schema (or structure).

So you can add or remove fields on each document that you save. Of course there are limitations…
