<p>BSON can be com&shy;pared to bin&shy;ary inter&shy;change for&shy;mats, like <a href="http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/">Proto&shy;col Buf&shy;fers</a>. BSON is more "schema-less" than Proto&shy;col Buf&shy;fers, which can give it an ad&shy;vant&shy;age in flex&shy;ib&shy;il&shy;ity but also a slight dis&shy;ad&shy;vant&shy;age in space ef&shy;fi&shy;ciency (BSON has over&shy;head for field names with&shy;in the seri&shy;al&shy;ized data).</p>
