Abstract

The last chapter described how to create, organize, and query information in SQL databases. We started with SQL because it is a very common standard, and even databases that do not share its relational properties often implement a very similar query interface (e.g., CQL for Cassandra). However, sometimes we would like to make different trade-offs than the ones that relational databases have chosen.
