A NoSQL database is a datastore that doesn’t follow the
relational model introduced by Edgar F. Codd in 1970
NoRel would have been a more appropriate name
So what’s the relational model?
None
TABLE
TABLE Row

None
None
Relational Databases also offer ACID guarantees
NoSQL defines what the database is not
NoSQL comes in multiple flavours
Key-Value databases
Document-oriented databases
Wide column databases
Graph databases
