CBOR
CBOR (Concise Binary Object Representation) is a compact data format designed for efficient data serialization. It encodes complex data structures like numbers, text, lists, and maps into a small, binary form that computers can quickly process and transmit. Unlike formats like JSON, CBOR is optimized for low-bandwidth and resource-constrained environments, such as IoT devices. It ensures data is stored and transferred efficiently without losing clarity or structure, making it suitable for applications where speed and compactness are important while maintaining flexibility for diverse data types.
