# MongoDB

Skill · Databases

Canonical page: https://career.thegoodapps.co/skills/mongodb

A widely used open-source, document-oriented NoSQL database that stores data as flexible, JSON-like documents (BSON) rather than in rigid relational tables. Software developers use it for applications requiring flexible schemas, horizontal scalability, and rapid iteration, such as content management systems, real-time analytics, and mobile apps. It is a core part of the popular MEAN/MERN web development stacks alongside JavaScript technologies like Express, Angular/React, and Node.js.
