MongoDB represents data as of JSON documents. In MongoDB, you don’t need to define the schema. It uses JavaScript as query language. For cloud-based services it is the best. Supported languages are C++ , C. It doesn’t support JOIN. An ideal choice if you have unstructured and/or structured data with the potential for rapid growth. GPL v2/ Commercial license available OD. Ongoing development is done by MongoDB, Inc.
MySQL represents data in tables and rows. We need to define rows and columns. MySql uses Structured Query Language. If data security is the priority MySQL is the best. Supported languages are C++, C and JavaScript. It does support JOIN operations. A great choice if you have structured data and need a traditional relational database. GNU AGPL v3.0/ Commercial licenses available OD. Constant development is done by the Oracle Corporation.
One single benefit that MongoDB has over MYSQL is its ability to handle large unstructured data. It is faster compared to MySQL.
