BSON (/ ˈ b iː s ə n / [2]) is a computer data interchange format. 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.
^ 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]
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.
It was derived from JavaScript, but many modern programming languages include code to generate and parse JSON-format data. JSON filenames use the extension .json. Douglas Crockford originally specified the JSON format in the early 2000s. [1] He and Chip Morningstar sent the first JSON message in April 2001.
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. Avro uses a schema to structure ...
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.
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.
Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) is a free and open-source cross-platform data format used to serialize structured data. It is useful in developing programs that communicate with each other over a network or for storing data.
