NoSQL vs Hadoop


 
Hadoop is a computing framework where as NoSQL is Not Only - SQL databases
Hadoop refers to an ecosystem of software packages, including MapReduce, HDFS, and a whole host of other software packages to support the import and export of data into and from HDFS (the Hadoop Distributed FileSystem).
NoSQL is referring to non-relational or at least non-SQL database solutions such as HBase (also a part of the Hadoop ecosystem), Cassandra, MongoDB, Riak, CouchDB, and many others.
Apache Hadoop is an open-source software framework that supports data-intensive distributed applications, licensed under the Apache v2 license.1 It enables applications to work with thousands of computational independent computers and petabytes of data.
In computing, NoSQL (mostly interpreted as "not only SQL"1) is a broad class of database management systems identified by its non-adherence to the widely used relational database management system model; that is, NoSQL databases are not primarily built on tables, and as a result, generally do not use SQL for data manipulation.
Like Hadoop, NoSQL is also developed for the distributed and parallel computing. The difference is Hadoop is not a database system but is a software ecosystem that allows for massively parallel computing. But, NoSQL is created especially as a database framework. 
They are not the same thing, but are related to data inten. Hadoop is an entire framework (that can be used with NoSQL DBMS like Oracle NoSQL).

What is the difference between Elastic and Enterprise Redis w.r.t "Hybrid Query" capabilities

  We'll explore scenarios involving nested queries, aggregations, custom scoring, and hybrid queries that combine multiple search criteria. 1. Nested Queries ElasticSearch Example: ElasticSearch supports nested documents, which allows for querying on nested fields with complex conditions. Query: Find products where the product has a review with a rating of 5 and the review text contains "excellent". { "query": { "nested": { "path": "reviews", "query": { "bool": { "must": [ { "match": { "reviews.rating": 5 } }, { "match": { "reviews.text": "excellent" } } ] } } } } } Redis Limitation: Redis does not support nested documents natively. While you can store nested structures in JSON documents using the RedisJSON module, querying these nested structures with complex condi...

Training LLM model requires more GPU RAM than storing same LLM

Storing an LLM model and training the same model both require memory, but the memory requirements for training are typically higher than just storing the model. Let's dive into the details: Memory Requirement for Storing the Model: When you store an LLM model, you need to save the weights of the model parameters. Each parameter is typically represented by a 32-bit float (4 bytes). The memory requirement for storing the model weights is calculated by multiplying the number of parameters by 4 bytes. For example, if you have a model with 1 billion parameters, the memory requirement for storing the model weights alone would be 4 GB (4 bytes * 1 billion parameters). Memory Requirement for Training: During the training process, additional components use GPU memory in addition to the model weights. These components include optimizer states, gradients, activations, and temporary variables needed by the training process. These components can require additional memory beyond just storing th...

How are vector databases used?

  Vector Databases Usage: Typically used for vector search use cases such as visual, semantic, and multimodal search. More recently, they are paired with generative AI text models for conversational search experiences. Development Process: Begins with building an embedding model designed to encode a corpus (e.g., product images) into vectors. The data import process is referred to as data hydration. Application Development: Application developers utilize the database to search for similar products. This involves encoding a product image and using the vector to query for similar images. k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) Indexes: Within the model, k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) indexes facilitate efficient retrieval of vectors. A distance function like cosine is applied to rank results by similarity.
