NOSQL databases (commonly interpreted by developers as 'not only SQL databases' and not 'no SQL') is an emerging alternative to the most widely used relational databases. As the name suggests, it does not completely replace SQL but compliments it in such a way that they can co-exist. In this paper we will be discussing the NOSQL data model, types of NOSQL data stores, characteristics and features of each data store, query languages used in NOSQL, advantages and disadvantages of NOSQL over RDBMS and the future prospects of NOSQL.
