CompTIA DataSys+ (DS0-001) — Question 18

A company is launching a proof-of-concept, cloud-based application. One of the requirements is to select a database engine that will allow administrators to perform quick and simple queries on unstructured data.
Which of the following would be best suited for this task?

Answer options

• A. MongoDB
• B. MS SQL
• C. Oracle
• D. Graph database

Correct answer: A

Explanation

MongoDB is designed specifically for handling unstructured data and allows for flexible queries, making it ideal for this use case. In contrast, MS SQL and Oracle are more suited for structured data and may not perform as efficiently with unstructured data. A Graph database is tailored for relationship data, which isn't the primary need here.
