Here, we will be discussing the process of integrating Drupal 7 with MongoDB. The integration of these two technologies is more beneficial to use, It helps in increasing the scalability and performance, as well as provides the ability to handle large amounts of unstructured data. To understand it in a more exact manner we will cover all the key terminologies, with a step-by-step guide for more visibility on this topic.

Key Terminologies

• Drupal: It is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) that is written in PHP. It allows users to easily create, manage, and publish content on websites.
• MongoDB: It is a free and open-source NoSQL document-oriented database. It uses BSON instead of JSON which is mostly similar to JSON.
