Document databases are well-suited for storing and retrieving JSON documents because they are designed to handle semi-structured data. They store data in a document format, typically JSON, BSON, or XML, which allows for flexible and dynamic schemas. Key/value databases, on the other hand, are more suited for simple key-value pairs where the value can be a basic data type, string, or binary data.
