Today, many companies generate and store huge amounts of data. To give
you an idea, decades ago, the size of the Internet was measured in
Terabytes (TB) and now it is measured in Zettabytes (ZB).

Relational databases were designed to meet the storage and information


management needs of the time. Today we have a new scenario where
social networks, IoT devices and Edge Computing generate millions of
unstructured and highly variable data. Many modern applications require
high performance to provide quick responses to user queries.

In relational DBMSs, an increase in data volume must be accompanied by


improvements in hardware capacity. This technological challenge forced
companies to look for more flexible and scalable solutions.

NoSQL data modeling

One of the biggest differences between relational and non-relational


bases lies in the approach we took to data

modeling.

NoSQL databases do not follow a rigid and predefined scheme. This


allows developers to freely choose the data model based on the features
of the project.

The fundamental goal is to improve query performance, getting rid of the

a
need to structure information in complex tables. Thus, NoSQL supports a a
wide variety of denormalized data such as JSON documents, key values,
columns, and graph relationships. a a

modification of a specific class of data. The main ones are:


Key-value:
Key-value: Redis, Riak or DyamoDB. These are the simplest NoSQL
databases. They store the information as if it were a dictionary
 based on key-value pairs, where each value is associated with a
 unique key. They were designed to scale quickly ensuring system
performance and data availability.

Documentary:
Documentary: MongoDB, Couchbase. Data is stored in documents

such as JSON, BSON or XML. Some consider them an upper
echelon of key-value systems since they allow encapsulating key-
value pairs in more complex structures for advanced queries.

Column-oriented:
Column-oriented: BigTable, Cassandra, HBase. Instead of storing
data in rows like relational databases do, they do it in columns.
These in turn are organized into logically ordered column families in
the database. The system is optimized to work with large datasets
and distributed workloads.

Graph-oriented:
Graph-oriented: Neo4J, InfiniteGraph. They save data as entities
and relationships between entities. The entities are called “nodes”
and the relationships that bind the nodes are the “edges”. They are
perfect for managing data with complex relationships, such as
social networks or applications with geospatial location.

NoSQL data storage and partitioning


Instead of making use of a monolithic and expensive architecture where
all data is stored on a single server, NoSQL distributes the information on
different servers known as “nodes
nodes” that join in a network called “cluster
cluster“.

[Link] 3/26
3/17/25, 9:14 AM NoSQL Database: The Definitive Guide to NoSQL Databases

This feature allows NoSQL DBMSs to scale horizontally and manage large
volumes of data using partitioning techniques. a a
What is NoSQL databasea
partitioning? a

It is a process of breaking up a large database into smaller, easier-to-


Shares
manage chunks.

It is necessary to clarify that data partitioning is not exclusive to NoSQL.

SQL databases also support partitioning, but NoSQL systems have a

native function called “auto-sharding
auto-sharding” that automatically splits data,

balancing the load between servers.

 When to partition a NoSQL database?

There are several situations in which it is necessary to partition a NoSQL


database:

When the server is at the limit of its storage capacity or RAM.

When you need to reduce latency. In this case you get to balance
the workload on different cluster nodes to improve performance.

When you wish to ensure data availability by initiating a replication


procedure.

Although partitioning is used in large databases, you should not wait for
the data volume to become excessive because in that case it could cause
system overload.
Many programmers use AWS or Azure to simplify the process. These
platforms offer a wide variety of cloud services that allow developers to
skip the tasks related to database administration and focus on writing the
code of their applications.

Partitioning techniques

Writes

It consists of directing read and write operations to different nodes
 in the cluster. For example, read operations can be directed to
 replica servers acting as children to ease the load on the parent
node.

Sharding
Sharding

Data is divided horizontally into smaller chunks called “shards” and
distributed across different nodes in the cluster.
It is the most widely used partitioning technique in databases with
distributed architecture due to its scalability and ability to self-
balance the system load, avoiding bottlenecks.

Consistent
Consistent Hashing
Hashing
It is an algorithm that is used to efficiently allocate data to nodes in
a distributed environment.
The idea of consistent hashes was introduced by David Karger in a
research paper published in 1997 and entitled “Consistent Hashing
and Random Trees: Distributed Caching Protocols for Relieving
Hot Spots on the World Wide Web“.
In this academic work, the “Consistent Hashing” algorithm was
proposed for the first time as a solution to balance the workload of
servers with distributed databases.

Nodes are represented in a circular ring and each data is assigned


to a node using a hash function. When a new node is added to the
system, the data is redistributed between the existing nodes and
the new node.
The hash works as a unique identifier so that when you make a
query, you just have to locate that point on the ring.
An example of a NoSQL database that uses “Consistent Hashing” is
DynamoDB, since one of its strengths is incremental scaling, and to
achieve this it needs a procedure capable of fractionating data
dynamically.

The two main ways to perform data replication (in addition to the

 Peer to peer

 All nodes in the cluster have the same hierarchical level and can accept
writing. When data is written to one node it spreads to all the others. This

ensures availability, but can also lead to inconsistencies if conflict

resolution mechanisms are not implemented (for example, if two nodes
try to write to the same location at the same time).

CAP theorem and consistency of NoSQL


databases.

The CAP theorem was introduced by Professor Eric Brewer of the


University of Berkeley in the year 2000. He explains that a distributed
database can meet two of these three qualities at the same time:

[Link] 7/26
3/17/25, 9:14 AM NoSQL Database: The Definitive Guide to NoSQL Databases

Consistency:
Consistency: All requests after the writing operation get the same

value, regardless of where the queries are made.
a
Availability:
Availability: The database always responds to requests, even if a
failure takes place. a a
Partition
Partition Tolerance:
Tolerance: The system continues to operate even if
communication between some nodes is interrupted.
Shares

Under this scheme we could choose a DBMS that is consistent and


partition tolerant (MongoDB, HBase), available and partition tolerant
(DynamoDB, Cassandra), or consistent and available (MySQL), but all
three features cannot be preserved at once.
Each development has its requirements and the CAP theorem helps us
find the DBMS that best suits your needs. Sometimes it is imperative for
data to be consistent at all times (for example, in a stock control system).
In these cases, we usually work with a relational database. In

NoSQL
Shares

BASE
BASE is a concept opposed to the ACID
ACID properties (atomicity,

consistency, isolation, durability) of relational databases. In this approach,

we prioritize data availability over immediate consistency, which is

especially important in applications that process data in real time.

The BASE acronym means:


Basically
Basically Available:
Available: The database always sends a response, even if it
contains errors if readings occur from nodes that did not yet receive
the last writing.

Soft
Soft state:
state: The database may be in an inconsistent state when
reading takes place, so you may get different results on different
readings.

Eventually
Eventually Consistent:
Consistent: Database consistency is reached once the
information has been propagated to all nodes. Up to that point we
talk about an eventual consistency.

Even though the BASE approach arose in response to ACID, they are not
exclusionary options. In fact, some NoSQL databases like MongoDB offer
configurable consistency.

Tree indexing in NoSQL databases. What


are the best-known structures?
So far we have seen how data is distributed and replicated in a NoSQL
database, but we need to explain how it is structured efficiently to make
its search and retrieval easier.

this can influence query performance and data recovery time.
 There are different tree indexes that you may use in NoSQL databases.

 B Trees

They are balanced trees and perfect for distributed systems for their

ability to maintain index consistency, although they can also be used in

relational databases.
The main feature of B trees is that they can have several child nodes for
each parent node, but they always keep their height balanced. This
means that they have an identical or very similar number of levels in each
tree branch, a particularity that makes it possible to handle insertions and
deletions efficiently.
They are widely used in filing systems, where large data sets need to be
accessed quickly.

T Trees

They are also balanced trees that can have a maximum of two or three
child nodes.
Unlike B-trees, which are designed to make searches on large volumes of
data easier, T-trees work best in applications where quick access to
sorted data is needed.

AVL Trees

 KD Trees

They are binary, balanced trees that organize data into multiple

data.

Merkle Trees

They represent a special case of data structures in distributed systems.


They are known for their utility in Blockchain

these pairs to generate their corresponding parent hashes until only
one hash remains, which is the Merkle root.

The Merkle root is at the top of the tree and is the value

This is why Merkle trees are frequently employed to verify the integrity of
data blocks in Blockchain transactions.
NoSQL databases like Cassandra draw on these structures to validate
data without sacrificing speed and performance.

Below, we will give as an example two of the most widely used NoSQL
 DBMSs for the development of scalable and high-performance
 applications: MongoDB and Apache Cassandra.

 MongoDB

It is a documentary

DBMS developed by 10gen in 2007. It is open source
and has been created in programming languages such as C++, C and
JavaScript.

MongoDB is one of the most popular systems for distributed databases.


Social networks such as LinkedIn, telecommunications companies such as
Telefónica or news media such as the Washington Post use MongoDB.
Here are some of its main features.

Database
Database storage

files (binary JSON). Each database consists of a collection of
documents. Once MongoDB is installed and Shell is running, you

Shares
DB
DB Partitioning
Partitioning with
with MongoDB:
MongoDB: MongoDB makes it easy to
 distribute data across multiple servers using the automatic sharding
 feature. Data fragmentation takes place at the collection level,
distributing documents among the different cluster nodes. To carry

out this distribution, a “partition key” defined as a field is used in all
 collection documents. Data is fragmented into “chunks”, which have
a default size of 64 MB and are stored in different shards within the

cluster, ensuring that there is a balance. MongoBD monitors
 continuously chunk distribution among the shard nodes and, if
necessary, performs automatic rebalancing to ensure that the
workload supported by these nodes is balanced.

DB
DB Replication
Replication with

MongoDB: MongoDB uses a replication system
based on the master-slave
master-slave architecture. The master server can
perform writing and reading operations, but slave nodes only
perform reads (replica

nodes via an operation log called oplog

MongoDB: MongoDB has a powerful API
that allows you to access and analyze data in real time, as well as
perform ad-hoc
ad-hoc queries
queries, that is, direct queries on a database that
are not predefined. This gives users the ability to perform custom
searches, filter documents, and sort results by specific fields. To
carry out these queries, MongoDB uses the “find

desired collection or “findAndModify
findAndModify” to query and update the
values of one or more fields simultaneously.

DB
DB Consistency
Consistency with
with MongoDB:
MongoDB: From version 4.0 (the most recent
one is 6.0), MongoDB supports ACID transactions at document
level. The “snapshot isolation” function provides a consistent view
of the data and allows atomic operations to be performed on
multiple documents within a single transaction. This feature is
especially relevant for NoSQL databases, as it poses solutions to
different consistency-related issues, such as concurrent writes or

MongoDB: MongoDB has a high level of security

to ensure the confidentiality of stored data. It has several

 encryption at rest and the possibility of restricting access to certain
IP addresses. In addition, it allows you to audit the activity of the

system and keep a record of the operations carried out in the
 database.

Apache Cassandra

It is a column-oriented DBMS that was developed by Facebook to


optimize searches within its platform. One of the creators of Cassandra is
computer scientist Avinash Lakshman, who previously worked for
Amazon, as part of the group of engineers who developed DynamoDB.
For that reason, it does not come as a surprise that it shares some
features with this other system.
In 2008 it was launched as an open source project, and in 2010 it became
a top-level project of the Apache Foundation. Since then, Cassandra
continued to grow to become one of the most popular NoSQL DBMSs.
Although Meta uses other technologies today, Cassandra is still part of its
data infrastructure. Other companies that use it are Netflix, Apple or
Ebay. In terms of scalability, it is considered one of the best NoSQL
databases.

Let’s take a look at some of its key properties:

Database
Database storage
storage with
with Apache
Apache Cassandra:
Cassandra: Cassandra uses a
“Column Family” data model, which is similar to relational
databases, but more flexible. It does not refer to a hierarchical
structure of columns that contain other columns, but rather to a
collection of key-value pairs, where the key identifies a row and the
value is a set of columns. It is designed to store large amounts of
data and perform more efficient writing and reading operations.

DB
DB Partitioning
Partitioning with
with Apache
Apache Cassandra:
Cassandra: For data distribution,
Cassandra uses a partitioner that distributes data to different
cluster nodes. This partitioner uses the algorithm “consistent
hashing” to assign a unique partition key to each data row. Data
possessing the same partition key will stay together on the same
nodes. It also supports virtual nodes (vnodes), which means that the
same physical node may have multiple data ranges.

DB
DB Replication
Replication with
with Apache
Apache Cassandra:
Cassandra: Cassandra proposes a
replication model based on Peer to peer in which all cluster nodes
accept reads and writes. By not relying on a master node to process
requests, the chance of a bottleneck occurring is minimal. Nodes
communicate with each other and share data using a gossiping
protocol.

DB
DB Queries
Queries with

Cassandra: Like MongoDB, Cassandra also
supports ad-hoc queries, but these tend to be more efficient if they

are based on the primary key. In addition, it has its own query

a
language called CQL (Cassandra Query Language) with a syntax
similar to that of SQL, but instead of using joins, it takes its chances

on data denormalization.
a a
DB
DB Indexation

Apache Cassandra:
Cassandra: Cassandra uses secondary
indexes to allow efficient queries on columns that are not part of
the primary key. These indices may affect individual columns or

multiple columns (SSTable Attached Secondary Index). They are
 created to allow complex range, prefix or text search queries in a
 large number of columns.

 DB
DB Coherence
Coherence with
with Apache
Apache Cassandra:
Cassandra: By using Peer to Peer
architecture, Cassandra plays with eventual consistency. Data is

propagated asynchronously across multiple nodes. This means that,
 for a short period of time, there may be discrepancies between the
different replicas. However, Cassandra also provides mechanisms

for setting the consistency level. When a conflict takes place (for
example, if the replicas have different versions), use the timestamp
and validate the most recent version. In addition, perform
automatic repairs to maintain data consistency and integrity if
hardware failures or other events that may cause discrepancies
between replicas take place.

DB
DB Security
Security with
with Apache
Apache Cassandra:
Cassandra: To use Cassandra in a safe
environment, it is necessary to perform configurations, since many
options are not enabled by default. For example, activate the
authentication system and set permissions for each user role. In
addition, it is critical to encrypt data in transit and at rest. For
communication between the nodes and the client, data in transit
can be encrypted using SSL/TLS.

Challenges in managing NoSQL


databases. How does Pandora FMS help?

NoSQL DBMSs offer developers the ability to manage large volumes of


data and scale horizontally by adding multiple nodes to a cluster.
To manage these distributed infrastructures, it is necessary to master
different data partitioning and replication techniques (for example, we

[Link] 17/26
3/17/25, 9:14 AM NoSQL Database: The Definitive Guide to NoSQL Databases

have seen that MongoDB uses a master-slave architecture, while

a
Cassandra prioritizes availability with the Peer to peermodel). a
Unlike RDMS, which share many similarities, in NoSQL databases there is
a
no common paradigm and each system has its own APIs, languages and a a
different implementation, so getting used to working with each of them
can be a real challenge.
Shares
Considering that monitoring is a fundamental component for managing
 any database, we must be pragmatic and rely on those resources that
 make our lives easier.
 Both MongoDB and Apache Cassandra have commands that return

 system status information and allow problems to be diagnosed before


they become critical failures. Another possibility is to use Pandora FMS

software to simplify the whole process.

How to do so?

If this is a database in MongoDB, download Pandora FMS plugin for


MongoDB. This plugin uses the mongostat command to collect basic
information about system performance. Once the relevant metrics are
obtained, they are sent to Pandora FMS data server for their analysis.
On the other hand, if the database works with Apache Cassandra,
download the corresponding plugin for this system. This plugin obtains
the information by internally running the tool nodetool, which is already
included in the standard Cassandra installation, and offers a wide range
of commands to monitor server status. Once the results are analyzed, the
plugin structures the data in XML format and sends it to Pandora FMS
server for further analysis and display.
For these plugins to work properly, copy the files to the plugin directory
of Pandora FMS agent, edit the configuration file and, finally, restart the
system (the linked articles explain the procedure very well).
Once the plugins are active, you will be able to monitor the activity of the
cluster nodes in a graph view and receive alerts should any failures take
