This lecture introduces NoSQL databases, explaining their origins in response to the limitations of relational databases. It covers the major types of NoSQL databases: key-value, column-oriented, document-oriented, and graph-oriented. The lecture also delves into the concepts of data schemas, denormalization, and joins in the context of MongoDB, along with CRUD operations and data querying.
