NoSQL has become increasingly popular as a complementary tool to traditional SQL approaches to databases and database management. As we know, NoSQL doesn’t follow the same relational model that SQL does, which allows it to do quite a lot of powerful things. More importantly, it’s very flexible and scalable, which is excellent for newer projects that don’t have the time or budget to spend on designing an SQL database.
