Document DBs, Key-Value DBs, Event DBs are all NoSQL. NoSQL is name of all persistence technologies that are not SQL. The thing you are missing about NoSQL is that NoSQl cannot be compared to SQL in any way. User Euphoric made a good comment about this on StackExchange: On the other hand, NoSQL databases are horizontally scalable, which means multiple smaller machines will do the work for you.Ĭomparing NoSQL and SQL databases is hard to do, because of differences in build. SQL databases are vertically scalable, which means one ultimate machine will do the work for you.

The main difference between these two is that SQL databases, also called Relational Databases (RDBMS), have relational structure and NoSQL doesn’t use relations. Here we have both SQL and NoSQL databases. That’s when I decided to create my own small comparison.

To help me in my search, I tried to find a comparison based on database performance, but couldn’t find anything which suited me. Waiting for too long in this way may force you to search for a better alternative to your current database engine, so I started looking for something new. I recently performed many database operations which took hours to complete.
