Why are mongodb data files large in size?



Why are mongodb data files large in size?..

Answer / Poisha

MongoDB data files can be large due to the way data is stored on disk. Each collection occupies a separate file and each document within a collection is stored as a BSON (Binary JSON) object, which can be quite large depending on the complexity of the data. Additionally, MongoDB uses journaling and write-ahead logging for data safety, which also contributes to larger file sizes.
