## How does it work?

Cloud Firestoreis a cloud-first, NoSQL document database offering MongoDB compatibility.

Following the Cloud Firestore with MongoDB compatibility data model, you store data in documents that contain fields mapping to values. These documents are stored in collections, which are containers for your documents that you can use to organize your data and build queries. Documents support many different[data types](https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/enterprise/supported-data-types-drivers), from strings and numbers, to complex, embedded objects.

Additionally, querying inCloud Firestoreis expressive, efficient, and flexible. You can use standard MongoDB driver or the MongoDB Query Language (MQL). You can create shallow queries to retrieve data at the document level without needing to retrieve the entire collection, and add sorting, filtering, and limits to your queries or cursors to paginate your results.

Finally, Cloud Firestore with MongoDB compatibility is fully integrated withGoogle Cloudgovernance services as described in[identity and access management](https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/enterprise/security/iam).
