Different Types of NoSql databases
- RDBMS
-
Relational databases are used for transactional needs (storing financial data, reporting requirements, etc.)
- MongoDB
-
Documented oriented databases are used for documents oriented needs (for e.g. Product Catalog). Documents are schema free so changes in the schema can be accommodated into application without much headache.
- Cassandra/Amazon DynamoDB
-
Key-value pair based database (User activity tracking, Analytics, etc.). DynamoDB can store documents as well as key-value pairs.
- Redis
-
In memory distributed database (user session tracking), its mostly used as distributed cache among multiple microservices.
- Neo4j
-
Graph DB (social connections, recommendations, etc)
