Document databases are a type of NoSQL database that is designed to store and manage documents. Documents are typically JSON objects that can contain a variety of data types, including strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, and nested objects. Document databases are often used for applications that require flexibility and scalability, such as social networking apps, e-commerce apps, and content management systems.
