MongoDB (from “humongous”) is a scalable, high-performance, open source, schema-free, document-oriented database. Written in C++. MongoDB bridges the gap between key-value stores (which are fast and highly scalable) and traditional RDBMS […]

This article describe an example of using MySQL as a NoSQL in which the application can exceed 750,000 qps on a commodity server. This is originated from http://yoshinorimatsunobu.blogspot.com/2010/10/using-mysql-as-nosql-story-for.html UPDATE: Oracle officially released memcached daemon plugin that talks with InnoDB. I’m glad to see that NoSQL+MySQL has become an official solution. It’s still preview release […]
NoSQL databases are often compared by various non-functional criteria, such as scalability, performance, and consistency. This aspect of NoSQL is well-studied both in practice and theory because specific non-functional properties are often the main justification for NoSQL usage and fundamental results on distributed systems like the CAP theorem apply well to NoSQL systems. […]
In 2010, when the world became enchanted by the capabilities of cloud systems and new databases designed to serve them, a group of researchers from Yahoo decided to look intoNoSQL. They developed the YCSB framework to assess the performance of new tools and find the best cases for their use. […]
1. Quick Comparison While SQL databases are insanely useful tools, their monopoly in the last decades is coming to an end. And it’s just time: I can’t even count the things that were forced into relational databases, but never really fitted them. (That being said, relational databases will always be […]
