NoSQL

SQL vs NoSQL

SQL:

• Save structured data,
• Separate relational data into different tables, load the related data through join operation.
• ACID granted.
• Somehow support only for vertical scale.

NoSQL means not sql or not only sql.

• Can also save relational data but only in different way.
• Various types: Key-Value, Wide-Column, Graph, Document
• Good support for distribution, generally high horizontal scalable.
• BASE oriented.
