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).

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.

Feature Engineering - What and Why

Feature engineering is a crucial step in the machine learning pipeline where you create new, meaningful features or transform existing features to improve the performance of your predictive models. It involves selecting, modifying, or creating features from your raw data to make it more suitable for machine learning algorithms. Here's a more detailed overview of feature engineering: Why Feature Engineering? Feature engineering is essential for several reasons: Improving Model Performance: Well-engineered features can significantly boost the predictive power of your machine learning models. Handling Raw Data: Raw data often contains noise, missing values, and irrelevant information. Feature engineering helps in cleaning and preparing the data for analysis. Capturing Domain Knowledge: Domain-specific insights can be incorporated into feature creation to make the model more representative of the problem. Common Techniques and Strategies: 1. Feature Extraction: Transforming raw data
