In this session, we dive into MongoDB, a popular NoSQL database designed for flexibility, scalability, and high performance. You’ll understand how MongoDB stores data in a document-oriented format (BSON) and why it’s an excellent choice for modern web applications.

✅ What You’ll Learn:
✔️ What MongoDB is and how it differs from SQL databases
✔️ Understanding collections, documents, and BSON structure
✔️ How MongoDB integrates with Node.js and Express
✔️ Key benefits like scalability, flexibility, and JSON-like syntax
✔️ Real-world use cases for MongoDB in full-stack development

💡 Why It Matters:
🔹 MongoDB powers dynamic and scalable backends used by top tech companies
🔹 Simplifies working with unstructured or semi-structured data
🔹 Perfect foundation for building RESTful APIs and cloud-integrated apps
