MongoDB offers several storage engines that cater to various use cases. The default storage engine in earlier versions was MMAPv1, which utilized memory-mapped files and document-level locking. This allowed for sequential access and indexed access, but random writes could cause performance issues. The newer, pluggable storage engine, WiredTiger, addresses this by using prefix compression, collection-level locking, and row-based storage.

In our previous blogs, we discussed the basic data types available in Valkey/Redis: Strings, Lists, Sets, and Sorted Sets. In this blog, we introduce a more complex data type, Hashes.You can think of these much like dictionaries from Python, associative arrays from PHP, etc. Normally in Valkey/Redis, you store one value associated with one key.
