There are main types of databases: SQL vs NoSQL. Let's take a closer look!image

I know one thing for sure that NOSQL follows the document and graph based model for the database. And the SQL follows the table based schema model for storing the database. That's the core difference. Each have it;s own pros and cons based on that.

SQL or structured query language is associated with relational databases and is used to process a structured database, while NonSQL databases are not relational. NonSQL databases are mostly documentoriented, non-structured and distributed, unlike SQL databases. Non-relatonal databases are most distributed and scattered in comparison to structured databases.

SQL databases are table based database  whereas NoSQL database can be document based, key-value pairs, graph database. SQL database are vertically scalable while NoSQP database are horezontally scalable.

SQL databases are table based databases whereas NoSQL databases can be document based, key-value pairs, graph databases. SQL databases are vertically scalable while NoSQL databases are horizontally scalable. SQL databases have a predefined schema whereas NoSQL databases use dynamic schema for unstructured data.

The main difference between SQL and NoSQL is the type of database system they are used with. SQL is a programming language used with relational databases, which are organized into tables of data. NoSQL is a term used to describe non-relational database systems that do not use SQL as their primary query language.

they are two different types of data base management systems

data model: SQL databases uses a tubular database model within predefined schemas. each row in a table represents a single record. the columns represent different attributes of that record.

NOSQL: can use a variety of database models such as key-value, document, graph, or column family. more flexible dynamic data structures

SQL is a type of software that enables computers to enter commands into a program, while NoSQL is a type of software that enables computers to store data in their own right, without a third party.

Yes, certainly! Here are the core differences between SQL (relational databases) and NoSQL (non-relational databases):


Data Model: SQL databases use a relational data model, where data is organized into tables with predefined columns and rows. NoSQL databases, on the other hand, use a variety of data models such as document, key-value, and graph models.


Scalability: SQL databases are vertically scalable, which means that they can increase their capacity by adding more resources to a single server. NoSQL databases are horizontally scalable, which means that they can increase their capacity by adding more servers to a distributed system.


Structured vs unstructured data: SQL databases are ideal for structured data, where data is organized into tables with a fixed schema. NoSQL databases are better suited for unstructured or semi-structured data, where the data structure may vary.


Query language: SQL databases use SQL (Structured Query Language) to manipulate data. NoSQL databases use a variety of query languages, depending on the data model used.


ACID compliance: SQL databases are typically ACID-compliant, which means that they ensure data consistency and integrity. NoSQL databases, on the other hand, may sacrifice some level of consistency and durability for scalability and performance.


Overall, SQL databases are well-suited for applications that require strict data consistency and well-defined schemas, while NoSQL databases are better suited for applications with large amounts of unstructured or evolving data, and that require high scalability and performance.

Structured Query Language) and NoSQL (Not Only SQL) are two types of database management systems, and they differ primarily in their data models and approach to data storage and retrieval. Here are the core differences between SQL and NoSQL:


Data Model:

SQL: SQL databases use a structured data model based on tables with predefined schemas. The data is organized into rows and columns, and the relationships between tables are established using foreign keys.

NoSQL: NoSQL databases use various data models, such as key-value pairs, documents, wide-column stores, or graph-based models
