Question 2

In a __________ database, processing logic for the query is performed on the device that holds each database shard and if necessary, results are consolidated by the DBMS.​
A) ​SQL
B) ​NoSQL
C) ​relational
D) ​OLAP

Accepted Answer

NoSQL databases are typically designed for horizontal scaling, meaning that they easily distribute data across multiple servers or clusters. In this architecture, the processing logic for a query is performed on the device (or shard) that holds the relevant data and if necessary, the results are consolidated by the DBMS. This is in contrast to SQL or relational databases where data is typically vertically scaled, meaning that a single server or machine is responsible for all processing and storage. OLAP databases are not relevant to this question as they are used for online analytical processing rather than data storage and retrieval.
