Abstrakt
The analysis of relational and NoSQL databases leads to the conclusion that these data processing systems are to some extent complementary. In the current Big Data applications, especially where extensive analyses (so-called Big Analytics) are needed, it turns out that it is non trivial to design an infrastructure involving data and software of both types.
Unfortunately, the complementarity negatively in°uences integration possibilities of these data stores both at the data model and data processing levels. In terms of performance, it may be bene-cial to use a polyglot persistence, a multimodel approach or multilevel modeling, or even to transform the SQL database schema into NoSQL and to perform data migration between the relational and NoSQL databases.
Another possibility is to integrate a NoSQL database and relational database with the help of a third data model. The aim of the paper is to show these possibilities and present some new methods of designing such integrated database architectures.
