Planet NoSQL

SQL is the only 22nd century tool available in 21st century Here are the articles comparing  architecture , database objects , data types and data modeling of Oracle with Couchbase. This will focus on SQL support.   Oracle was the first and staunch  supporter  of  SQL . Oracle's SQL implementation beat IBM to market by two years.  That changed the fortune of one or two people :-)  All of the modern relational databases implement SQL. So much so, relational databases are sometimes called SQL databases, much to the  chagrin of C. J. Date .  Nations are known by their languages... English, French, and American(!). It's not a stretch for a class of database system to be known by their languages as well.  SQL has been so effective, many big data and non-relational systems have picked up SQL as the lingua franca . SQL is here to stay, even for noSQL systems.  SQL > SQL SQL may have started as a structured english query language ...

INTRODUCTION You know Oracle, but need to a good overview of Couchbase, a modern NoSQL database? You're in the right place. This will speed up your understanding of Couchbase.  It’s not intended to evaluate all the features or performance.  Since Oracle is a relational database with SQL as the main query language, it's normal for developers to view other databases from SQL point of view. In this article, we'll compare and contrast Oracle with Couchbase from SQL point of view.  You'll get a good feel for the architecture and capabilities of Couchbase. We won't do a deep dive into high-availability, scale-out and sizing the databases in this series.   This blog series will cover the following topics, comparing Oracle and Couchbase from a developer perspective. Architecture Database Objects Data types Data Modeling Statements and Features Indexes Optimizer Transaction Here’s the overview comparison from logic to language, transactions to tooling.   In res...
