^ The current default format is binary. ^ The "classic" format is plain text, and an XML format is also supported. ^ Theoretically possible due to abstraction, but no implementation is included. ^ The primary format is binary, but text and JSON formats are available. [8] [9]
Smile is a computer data interchange format based on JSON.It can also be considered a binary serialization of the generic JSON data model, which means tools that operate on JSON may be used with Smile as well, as long as a proper encoder/decoder exists for the tool.
The name "BSON" is based on the term JSON and stands for "Binary JSON". [2] It is a binary form for representing simple or complex data structures including associative arrays (also known as name-value pairs), integer indexed arrays, and a suite of fundamental scalar types. BSON originated in 2009 at MongoDB. Several scalar data types are of ...
Universal Binary JSON (UBJSON) is a computer data interchange format. It is a binary form directly imitating JSON , but requiring fewer bytes of data. It aims to achieve the generality of JSON, combined with being much easier to process than JSON.
Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) is a binary data serialization format loosely based on JSON authored by Carsten Bormann and Paul Hoffman. [ a ] Like JSON it allows the transmission of data objects that contain name–value pairs , but in a more concise manner.
It uses JSON for defining data types and protocols, and serializes data in a compact binary format. Its primary use is in Apache Hadoop , where it can provide both a serialization format for persistent data , and a wire format for communication between Hadoop nodes , and from client programs to the Hadoop services .
MessagePack is more compact than JSON, but imposes limitations on array and integer sizes.On the other hand, it allows binary data and non-UTF-8 encoded strings. In JSON, map keys have to be strings, but in MessagePack there is no such limitation and any type can be a map key, including types like maps and arrays, and, like YAML, numbers.
One can use either the direct-format or annotated-format for storing higher dimensional arrays, as natively supported by both JSON/UBJSON, but the benefit of using the annotated format for text-based JData, and the packed-array optimized format for binary-JData becomes more advantageous due to faster processing speed.
