This means Mongo stores all associated data within one record, instead of storing it across many preset tables as in a SQL database. Some benefits of this storage model are: - Scalability: by default, non-relational databases are split (or "shared") across many systems instead of only one. This makes it easier to improve performance at a lower cost. - Flexibility: new datasets and properties can be added to a document without the need to make a new table for that data.
