The document provides information about MongoDB including:
- MongoDB is an open-source, document-based NoSQL database that stores data in BSON format and collections instead of tables and rows.
- It has no schema and allows embedding of documents, dynamic queries, indexing, replication and sharding for scale and high performance.
- The core components of MongoDB are the mongod daemon and mongo shell used to connect and execute commands. Collections contain documents rather than rows/columns and support dynamic schemas.
