• A relational database (RDB) works with structured data that is
organized by tables, records, and columns. RDBs establish a well-
defined relationship between database tables. RDBs use structured
query language (SQL), which is a standard user application that
provides a programming interface for database interaction. Relational
databases might have difficulties scaling out horizontally or working
with semi structured data, and might also require many joins for
normalized data.
• A non-relational database is any database that does not follow the
relational model that is provided by traditional relational database
management systems (RDBMS). Non-relational databases have grown
in popularity because they were designed to overcome the limitations
of relational databases for handling the demands of variable structured
data. Non-relational databases scale out horizontally, and they can
work with unstructured and semi structured data.
