The Many Flavors of NoSQL at TechBash

The relational database has been the dominant model for persisting data for the last 40 years. While SQL databases aren’t going away anytime soon, the NoSQL ("not only SQL") movement has challenged the relational database's place as the default persistence layer for modern applications. Learn about horizontal scaling and eventual consistency as well as key-value stores, document databases, graph databases, and more.

1. TechBash Bradley Holt, Developer Advocate Wednesday, September 28, 2016 The Many Flavors of NoSQL @BradleyHolt
3. @BradleyHolt
5. IBM Cloud Data Services Open for Data A comprehensive por.olio of open source data services
8. Big Data Get it?
9. A Brief History of Data
10. The Relational Database @BradleyHolt order *order_id customer_id date customer line_item *customer_id email_address name *order_id *item_id price quantity
11. ACID Guarantees Relational databases guarantee atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability
12. Big Iron The ACID guarantees provided by relational databases were (and often still are) critical for systems of record
13. The World Wide Web The introduction of the Web brought a whole new type of application with different constraints than systems of record @BradleyHolt
14. Mobile Apps The introduction of mobile apps added to the growing number of systems of engagement
15. Changing Constraints
16. Always On
17. Big Data
18. The CAP Theorem @BradleyHolt Partition Tolerance Availability Consistency Consistency Availability Partition Tolerance
19. Horizontal Scaling Horizontal scaling is scaling through the addition of commodity hardware
20. Eventual Consistency Given no new updates, each node in a distributed system will eventually have a consistent view of the data
21. Enter "Not only SQL" (NoSQL)
22. @BradleyHolt key-value graph document …more
23. @BradleyHolt
24. Key-Value Stores Opaque data accessed through unique keys
25. Document Databases A variation on key-value stores with strictly defined values (e.g. JSON objects)
26. Graph Databases Nodes and properties of nodes connected via edges
27. Choosing the Right Data Layer
28. Data Store It is not possible to abstract all of the constraints of your data store
29. Object-Relational Impedance Mismatch Object-oriented programming and relational databases use different models
30. Semi-Structured Data Relational databases enforce a schema
31. High Concurrency Database tuning often includes reducing the transaction scope or denormalization
32. Eric Evans on NoSQL "This is the world of NoSQL to me, that we can choose a tool that fits well with the problem we're trying to solve." –Eric Evans (author of Domain-Driven Design) @BradleyHolt
