Comparative Study of MongoDB vs Cassandra in big data analytics

摘要

In recent years, huge data is generating which needs large distributed databases to handle this massive amount of data. In general, relational databases were popularly used for many applications as it contains some rich set of features and transaction management capability. Yet, they are not efficient for storing and processing Big Data. Also, rapid growths happening in database models as these traditional relational databases are not capable to handle such vast data volumes. As Relational databases have several drawbacks, the requirement of novel technologies has emerged, that motivates developers migrate to Not Only SQL (NoSQL) databases. The key aim of this study is to make a review on capability of data storage and read/write performance in MongoDB vs Cassandra.
