Abstract

A lot of attention is being given to new ways of dealing with very large amounts of data. For some (e.g. the very big sites like Amazon, Google and so forth) SQL-databases suffer from both inflexibility and lack of performance on the terabyte level. Hence the NoSQL-movement centers on a “big table” concept as in HADOOP, Hive and other technologies. Essentially the data model is a hierarchical model of grouped columns. Some columns may point (using URIs) to rows in other tables.
