NoSQL databases are designed to handle the increased load of distributed and large-scale applications while providing unprecedented scalability, availability, and performance.

NoSQL databases are built from non-relational, distributed data stores that have no fixed schema and can be flexibly changed over time.

NoSQL databases allow for fast indexing of data without requiring expensive joins as in a relational database and can often support large numbers of simultaneous requests.

NoSQL databases support data sorting and ordering natively, meaning queries run faster and more efficiently than on traditional relational databases.

NoSQL databases have a wide range of use cases, from backing mobile or web applications to powering large data warehouses or analytics systems.

NoSQL databases are becoming increasingly popular in enterprise environments and are often used in conjunction with traditional relational databases.

NoSQL databases can provide users with greater scalability and flexibility, as they enable faster development cycles, less administration overhead, and lower costs compared to traditional relational databases.
