What is the BSON file format?

A file with the .BSON extension is a file known as BSON Binary JSON. It belongs to the Web Files category. This format is associated with 10gen.

The reliable way to open a .BSON file is with software that recognises this exact format, rather than guessing from the file name. If you are not sure what created a file, our file identifier can read its first bytes and name the real format, even when the file has been renamed.

We are still gathering the list of programs that open .BSON files. A fully verified, hand-written description of this format is being prepared; until then, the details on this page are drawn directly from our database.
