Since the SQL language appeared in mid 1970s, it has been leading the relational database industry for many years. With the modern era of databases not everyone sees the advantages of using relational databases. NoSQL, was first developed in the twenty first century (MongoDB, para 19) to address the issues that the SQL language could not handle. NoSQL cannot handle pure relational database models, it can use any of five different kinds of models, including relational to solve problems. With the variety of models, designers are wondering if there is a future for the strictly relational language SQL, and it’s other disadvantages compared to that of NoSQL.

With the advancement in database systems and software, Eric Brewer in his new article that: “The modern CAP goal should be to maximize combinations of consistency and availability that make sense for the specific application.Such an approach incorporates plans for operation during a partition and for recovery afterward, thus helping designers think about CAP beyond its historically perceived limitations.” (Brewer, 2012)
Meaning that with the great advancement in technology, the creation of NoSQL, designers are able to optimize their database systems to get achieve the best results from the CAP theorem as possible.
How it Works
With the modernization of NoSQL and it’s adaptation to fix problems with old relational databases, it is able to store data in many different ways. There are five main database types for NoSQL: relational, key-value, document databases, column family stores and graph databases. Each of the four are unique in their own way and thus different systems and companies support different database types. A key-value database is described by Pramod Sadalage, in his article on

In a journal written by Alexandru Boicea, Florin Radulescu and Laura Ioana Agapin, they cover the comparison of both a system using the SQL language and a system of the NoSQL language. The two management systems in place are Oracle, a system built off of SQL and MongoDB a system off of NoSQL. The authors are quick to say the main key features including that of the flexibility the MongoDB system has compared to Oracle. Oracle has defined schemas and do not provide the designer a lot of flexibility to quickly add new data. Oracle follows a strict relational model where as MongoDB does not. With MongoDB not following the traditional relational database model, allows the system to scale larger and become
A database is for the most part utilized for putting away related, organized information, with all around characterized information positions, in a productive way for addition, redesign and/or recovery (contingent upon application). Then again, a record framework is a more unstructured information store for putting away discretionary, presumably disconnected information. The record framework is more broad, and databases are based on top of the general information stockpiling administrations gave by document frameworks. There are additionally contrasts in the normal level of administration gave by document frameworks and databases. While databases must act naturally reliable at any moment in time (consider banks following cash!), give confined exchanges and sturdy composes, a document framework gives much looser

...now use. Majority of the world’s data is unstructured. Big data technology lets us analyze and bring together data of different types. A common theme in the data is that it is diverse. It doesn’t fall into a relational structure. Different browsers send different data; users withhold information, different forms of software versions, or vendors to communicate with you. There will be many errors and inconsistency if the process involves people. Big data is used to take unstructed data and extract ordered meaning. This is for consumption by users or it is structured input into an application.
A database management system, or DBMS, gives the user access to their data and helps them transform the data into information. Such database management systems include dBase, Paradox, IMS, and Oracle. These systems allow users to create, update, and extract information from their databases. Compared to a manual filing system, the biggest advantages to a computerized database system are speed, accuracy, and accessibility.
In 1977, Larry Ellison, Bob Miner, and Ed Oates founded System Development Laboratories. After being inspired by a research paper written in 1970 by an IBM researcher titled “A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks” they decided to build a new type of database called a relational database system. The original project on the relational database system was for the government (Central Intelligence Agency) and was dubbed ‘Oracle.’ They thought this would be appropriate because the meaning of Oracle is source of wisdom.
NoSQL are designed to expand transparently to take advantages of new nodes and they are built using low cost hardware, so cost shouldn’t be a problem. Big Data In today’s world, the transactions are so frequent that the data generated out of these transactions is huge. It is very difficult to store these huge transactional data in the traditional database systems. NoSQL with its elastic scaling feature, it is possible to increase the size of the database to store huge amount of transactional data. All the challenges involved in processing these huge transactional data can be overcome with NoSQL database systems. No DBA required NoSQL database systems can handle many of the things on its own. Dedicated database administrators are not required to handle day to day database operations. Since these systems have simpler data models, automated repair etc., No administrator is necessary to handle these things. Economics Traditional databases costs more money. The amount of space that you get on buying traditional database systems is less when compared to the NoSQL database system. In other words, cost per gigabyte per second or transaction per second is many times less when compared to traditional database management system. Flexible data model NoSQL database systems have flexible data models, unlike traditional relational database management systems. If any changes to the data model in traditional database systems, then it may bring down whole database system or the functions might not work as expected. But this is not the case with NoSQL database system. NoSQL has far more relaxed data model which allows the user to add a new column to store data without any much fuss. NoSQL key value stores and document the database virtually in a data
Fragmentation is a subtle foe for many computer users. Because we use our computers on a daily basis it becomes easy for us to overlook a slight computer performance problem when it comes to speed. The slowdown is minimal at first but over time we can become hostages to the delay time involved in our computers speed issues. Before we know it the computer that once performed with lightning speed has practically shut down our ability to be

Databases are becoming as common in the workplace as the stapler. Businesses use databases to keep track of payroll, vacations, inventory, and a multitude of other taske of which are to vast to mention here. Basically businesses use databases anytime a large amount of data must be stored in such a manor that it can easily be searched, categorized and recalled in different means that can be easily read and understood by the end user. Databases are used extensively where I work. In fact, since Hyperion Solutions is a database and financial intelligence software developing company we produce one. To keep the material within scope I shall narrow the use of databases down to what we use just in the Orlando office of Hyperion Solutions alone.
Almost all commercial database systems available today are designed to provide a high level of performance to its users. Nonetheless, Database Performance Tuning for large volumes of data is an arduous task. Even minor changes can bring about a substantial impact (positive or negative) on the performance of the system (KOCH, 2014).
In order to access information from a database, it is required to have a database management system (DBMS). These systems are computer software applications that, in order to analyze the data, interact with the user and the database itself. The best known are [6]:
The Database Management System (DBMS) is software that enables the users to define, create, maintain and control the access to the database. It is a software that interact with the user’s applications programs and it database. Meanwhile, information retrieval system is a system that involved the activity that the systems obtain the information. The obtaining information action need the information from it resources.
In our world, people rely heavily on the power of technology every day. Kids are learning how to operate an iPad before they can even say their first word. School assignments have become virtual, making it possible to do anywhere in the world. We can receive information from across the world in less than a second with the touch of a button. Technology is a big part of our lives, and without it life just becomes a lot harder. Just like our phones have such an importance to us in our daily lives, database management systems are the same for businesses. Without this important software, it would be almost impossible for companies to complete simple daily tasks with such ease.
