Abstract

NoSQL databases are designed to meet the huge data storage requirements of cloud computing and big data processing. NoSQL databases have lots of advanced features in addition to the conventional RDBMS features. Hence, the “NoSQL” databases are popularly known as “Not only SQL” databases. A variety of NoSQL databases having different features to deal with exponentially growing data-intensive applications are available with open source and proprietary option. This chapter discusses some of the popular NoSQL databases and their features on the light of CAP theorem.
