Abstract
The demands on database technology have been ever expanding since its introduction in the 1960’s. Today traffic on the internet requires that millions upon millions of records be stored and queried each second. Data must be highly available and quickly retrievable. These requirements put together have given rise to new forms of database technologies collectively called “NoSQL” or “Not Only SQL”. NoSQL eschews the strict guidelines that govern the creation and function of traditional relational databases. These guidelines are put aside in order to rise to the new demands of an increasingly interconnected world. The rigorous standards and data definitions of relational databases give way in order to provide the ability to rapidly

NoSQL is able to address the massive traffic loads experienced by database servers at corporations that specialize in data processing like Google, Facebook and Amazon. NoSQL technologies can provide near constant availability, massive user concurrency and lightning fast responses. There are four primary NoSQL database implementation types being used today: document based, wide column (or columnar), key-value and graph. The different properties of SQL and NoSQL databases will be examined and an overview of each NoSQL implementation type along with an example will be given.
ACID v. BASE: Eventual consistency Standard SQL databases adhere to what are commonly called the “ACID” properties. This means that the database must be atomic, consistent, isolated and durable. Atomic means that each attribute cannot be broken into sub groups. Consistent means that the database displays only the latest data; there are no older versions of data present within the database unless by design. Isolated means that no transactions will interfere with one another; i.e. two concurrent users changing the same data in the database will not end with incorrect results; the transactions will be processed separately. Durable means that once changes have been made they will remain in place and not revert to their prior state (Pritchett, 2008). The ACID properties can be crucial to certain business models; financial transactions might require
Most database ensure that they follow the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) properties to ensure the transactions are reliable. The studies show that stores that guarantee ACID property generally have poor availability. As a result, Dynamo focusses on application that have weaker consistency.
Fundamentally, relational and non relational databases are very different. Relational databases generally follow the "ACID" transaction principles, while non-relational databases generally follow "BASIC" principles (Sasaki, 2015). ACID stands for atomic, consistent, isolated, durable; and prioritizes data consistency, stability, and accuracy over speed and scalability (Sasaki,
SAP also known as systems applications and products in data processing is one of the better IT companies at the moment. It is a German software company which develops software for both small and large businesses to track customer and business interactions. Their largest software is ERP (Enterprise Planning Resource). The software was given the same name as the company name which can be slightly confusing at times. The company have offices in almost 130 countries and their software operates in 180 countries with 335,000 users spread across. As per task this research paper will challenge the comparison and contrast of NoSQL databases with relational database managing system which will be explained in greater detail further in the
MongoDB is one of numerous cross-stage archive situated databases. Named a NoSQL database, MongoDB shuns the customary table-based social database structure for JSON-like archives with element constructions (MongoDB calls the organization BSON), making the combination of information in specific sorts of utilizations less demanding and quicker. Discharged under a mix of the GNU Affero General Public License and the Apache License, MongoDB is free and open-source programming.
For example, Facebook which is the most popular social networking website recently announced their adoption of a NoSQL based graph data store for efficient storage of user data. In other words, NoSQL has already made its way into the enterprise. However, just like every other widely accepted technology, NoSQL has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. It is important for an enterprise to quantify the pros and cons of a particularly new database technology against the already existing solutions based on their custom requirements. For example, legacy enterprise applications may require extensive community support from their database vendors. Moreover, traditional relational database vendors such as Oracle have already established themselves for providing excellent support. On the other hand, NoSQL has been rapidly growing since the past few years and is consistently evolving in terms of big data handling, data warehousing and lesser complexity. Hence, there is a need to study the current market of data stores based on the most popular NoSQL data stores and how well they fair against the widely accepted traditional database systems. This requires a study of the commonly used NoSQL data stores.
The performance of Cassandra is very high, and contains a data model which is divided into row store with consistency.
The modern RDBMS advancements are not capable of supporting unstructured information with ideal space necessity. The plan winds up plainly mind-boggling and is henceforth troublesome for designers. The requirement for unstructured information administration is so annoying with conventional RDBMS arrangements (Big data in financial services industry: Market trends, challenges, and prospects 2013 - 2018). Moreover, RDBMS turns out to be an exorbitant answer for creating light-footed web applications with direct information investigation necessities. NoSQL is developing as a proficient possibility in this situation, which connects the issues related with RDBMS innovation. The market development can credit to creative dispatches of NoSQL arrangements, and collective endeavors by NoSQL sellers and clients. The endeavors of organizations, to enhance their market offerings, are creating the request of NoSQL, as a back-end bolster (Big data in financial services industry: Market trends, challenges, and prospects 2013 - 2018). The emergence of agile software development is creating the demand for NoSQL (Big data in financial services industry: Market trends, challenges, and prospects 2013 - 2018). They offer users much more avenues to accept data in many different forms. NoSQL is adaptable as SQL but offers many more uses that can apply to many organizations.
In the initial stages of evolution of databases, relational databases systems was designed as a solution to the problems of flat file databases. A relational database stores data in multiple table. This technique helped to overcome the issues like data duplication, data noise and inconsistency which ensured that the data is entered and stored only once. Later as the data grew in size, it became a challenging task to handle such a significantly large amount of data. Key features like high data velocity, data variety, data volume and data complexity are few important reasons which the traditional database systems failed to handle successfully. As a result NoSQL came into
NoSQL Databases are being used in the social media applications and big data processing based portals in which huge, heterogeneous and unstructured data formats are handled. NoSQL Databases are used for faster access of records from the big dataset at back-end. The AADHAAR Card implementation in India was done using NoSQL Databases as huge amount of information is associated including Text Data, Images, Thumb Impressions and Iris Detection. Any classical database system cannot handle the dataset of different types (Image, Text, Video, Audio, Video, Thumb Impressions for Pattern Recognition, Iris Sample) simultaneously.
As there is a rise in data volumes, the manageability of data and storing these huge volumes of data became a cause of concern to most of the organizations. It was during this period when Number of SQL or more popularly NoSQL was introduced, to process these large amounts of data efficiently and effectively. For this purpose, various Data Store categories were developed, based on the different data models. Some of the categories are:
NoSQL Databases also referred as Not only SQL databases. These NoSQL database have these days gained much attention and reputation because of their performance and high scalability. The advantage of NoSQL database is to store efficiently unstructured data. These days use of e-commerce websites, social networking sites etc. has been increased. These usage made to create the need to store the large data. Some companies have adopted NoSQL databases, as their data is growing. Dynamo, Big table, Voldemort, Cassandra are the NoSQL databases that are used by Amazon, Google, and LinkedIn and Facebook respectively. Facing these huge data has become challenging for Relational Database Management Systems. Hence NoSQL database came into existence. Mostly Relational Database Management System satisfies ACID properties, through NoSQL database we can achieve high level of Scalability and performance. As a lot of sensitive data is stored in NoSQL databases security issues becomes growing concerns.
In this paper, we will review one of the graph database (Neo4j), which the graph database is part of the emerging technology that is called NoSQL and compared it with one of the traditional relational databases (MySQL). MySQL, it is being another name for Relational Databases and it has been used for a long time period until now. However, with the emergence of Big Data there was clearly a need for more flexible databases. Facebook 's Graph Search use Neo4j, a graph database, is an application which clearly displays how relationships need to be modeled in a more efficient and sophisticated manner than using conventional relational models. In this paper, we will make a comparison between MySQL and Neo4j based on the features like ACID, replication, availability and the language that is used in both of them.
.In this paper we will examine the key features of the database management system MongoDB. Day-to-day information is growing in gigantic amount. Generated information include predominant information and it will have to be analyzed for gathering essential expertise. On the whole, relational databases are used so as to system the data. These, ways works successfully for small amount of knowledge. What if the data is very tremendous? To avoid this problems Mongo databases are introduced. MongoDB is a cross-platform document-oriented database. Classified as a NoSQL databases. NoSQL meets the requirements of the large-scale distributed computing environment, which provides scalability, high availability, high performance and reliability. NoSQL databases are increasingly used in big data and real-time web applications. Using NoSQL provides the benefit of storing data in schema less structure. NoSQL is not a brand new database technology; yet, it provides the possibility and flexibility of handling complex semi-structured data and optimizes solutions to different types of data in this massive and data-intensive era of large-scale computing.
Present day most of the clients are using the traditional databases like Oracle, DB2 etc and are experiencing problems in storage and performance. A large number of changes are required so that they can overcome all the drawback of the traditional database and researches are carrying out which is resulting in the database which differ from the normal database characteristics. Various number of clients are changing to NoSQL to overcome the drawbacks they are facing in traditional Database. So NoSQL have increasing demand because of following properties:
Following the atomicity of the transactions consistency is also a big part of both types of platforms. MySQL
