In the coming years, the MERN stack is likely to be used extensively since more and more applications are now built on JavaScript.

1) MongoDB :

MongoDB is a popular document database in which data is stored with JSON-based query language. It is used for high-volume data storage that can run over multiple servers with the best flexible and scalable features.

Features of Node
  • It supports an open-source JavaScript runtime environment.
  • It enables parallel (or multithreaded) task execution.
  • Helps to build a powerful server-side application.

Major Benefits of MERN Stack

  1. Document-oriented data storage.
  2. Manages database with flexible and robust technology.
  3. Time-saving and easy way to use.
