MongoDB vs MySQL
All in all, when it comes down to similarities between MongoDB and MySQL, both are database systems that allow the user to insert, update, or delete information in a database. However, MongoDB differs in that, unlike MySQL, MongoDB's data is not structured. In MySQL, you have columns and rows that, through primary keys, relate to other tables. In MongoDB, data is not interconnected like this; data is loosely defined in its relation through the use of "documents." These differences also give MongoDB scalability capabilities that MySQL simply does not have. For example, if you need to expand a database without throwing more compute power at a single server, MongoDB would be the perfect solution; you would be able to separate querying into different servers instead of one central server.
