Why NoSql (MongoDB)?
Scalable and flexible datastore : This is the primary reason for moving away from relational database.
Schema less : represent complex hierarchical relationships with a single record.
Scaling Out: Partitioning data across more machine.
Amazingly Fast : MongoDB uses a binary wire protocol as the primary mode of interaction
with the server
Features:
Indexing with ease
Stored Java Script
Simple Administration (automatic fail over if master goes down in master-slave architecture)
MongoDB is powerful and attempts to keep many features from relational
systems, it is not intended to do everything that a relational database does. Whenever
possible, the database server offloads processing and logic to the client side.
