“one size does not fit all”…rdbms, odbms, nosql data stores…
I published a new resource on ODBMS.ORG:
— “On NoSQL technologies – Part III: Document stores, NoSQL databases, ODBMSs”.
which is a follow up of this other article:
— “On NoSQL technologies – Part II”.
Both articles (available as free download .pdf) collect several interviews I have done in the last past weeks on the topics “document stores”, “nosql” databases, ODBMSs. Among the experts I interviewed, Prof. Michael Stonebraker (MIT), Dr. Hamid Pirahesh, (IBM Fellow), Marten Gustaf Mickos (previously CEO of MySQL AB), Peter Norvig (Director of Research at Google Inc.), to name a few. ..
“I think the “one size does not fit all” mantra — which I have been espousing for some time — is a good way to think about things. After all, the no SQL folks are themselves pretty diverse.” remarks Prof. Stonebraker at MIT.
And this a nice way to look at these things I believe….
