About

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system developed by Microsoft.

It supports Transact-SQL (T-SQL) as its query language, runs on both Windows and Linux platforms, includes features such as Always On Availability Groups, in-memory OLTP, Transparent Data Encryption, and row-level security.

MongoDB is a NoSQL, collection-oriented, schema-free document database that supports deployment across cloud or on-premises.

It stores documents in BSON (JSON-like) format, offers ACID multi-document transactions, powerful indexing (including geospatial and text), horizontal scalability via sharding, and high availability through replica sets.
