SQL is a relational database system, whereas NoSQL is a non-relational database system. SQL databases use tables to store and manage data, and they have a well-defined schema. NoSQL databases can store data in different ways such as document-oriented, key-value stores or graph-based systems, and do not require a fixed schema. In terms of scaling, SQL databases are vertically scalable, while NoSQL databases can scale horizontally. Additionally, SQL databases support ACID transactions which provide consistency among related data, whereas non-relational databases usually work with relaxed consistency models that prioritize availability and partition tolerance over strict consistency. Overall, both types of databases have advantages and disadvantages depending on specific use cases and requirements. |
