BSON (Binary JSON)

BSON (Binary JSON) is a data format that stores information in a way similar to JSON, but optimized for computers. Unlike plain text JSON, BSON is stored in a binary (non-readable) form, making it faster for computers to read and write. It supports a wide range of data types such as numbers, dates, and binary data, enabling efficient storage and retrieval of complex information. BSON is commonly used in databases like MongoDB, where it helps manage large volumes of data quickly and efficiently while maintaining the structured, flexible nature of JSON.
