Coping with Dynamic, Unstructured Data Sets - NoSQL: a buzzword or a savior?

Johannes Scholz

Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

Database research mentions a number of topics that challenge current data storage concepts. Among those topics are: managing and creating collections of unstructured data, horizontal scaling, mobile and cloud computing. As relational databases have limitations due to their underlying relational model, this article shows that upcoming NoSQL databases have characteristics meeting those challenges. Hence, they are widely used in Web 2.0 applications that manage great, unstructured data collections with dynamic content.
