Document base storage:

MongoDb is a document based database where as Oracle,mysql,sql server are relational databases.It stores whole data as BSON(Binary JSON) format.

Map:

  It supports map framework for batch processing of data. here map means, a master node takes an input, split it into smaller sections and send it to associated nodes. Here smaller nodes process the problem and it will send the processed data to master node.
