21CS745 Nosql Database

Course Learning Objectives

CLO 1. Recognize and Describe the four types of NoSQL Databases, the Document-oriented, KeyValue
CLO 2. Pairs, Column-oriented and Graph databases useful for diverse applications.
CLO 3. Apply performance tuning on Column-oriented NoSQL databases and Document-oriented
NoSQL Databases.
CLO 4. Differentiate the detailed architecture of column oriented NoSQL database, Document
database and Graph Database and relate usage of processor, memory, storage and file system
commands.
CLO 5. Evaluate several applications for location based service and recommendation services. Devise
an application using the components of NoSQL.
