## Document Store Databases
|
|
A document store database is considered to be yet another type of NoSQL database that is very similar to a Key Value database. A record in a document store represents a single structured document that can be different from all other documents in the database. Unlike a relational database, there is no mapping of objects to various table in the database. Instead we can take the entire object and write it directly into a document store database.
|
|
|
|
For example, we could have the following object inside of our code.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "freeCodeCamp",
|
|
"job": "contributor"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This entire object can be written directly into a document store database without further parsing.
