    SQL Vs Nosql Discussion - Osehra Awg 7-3-2012

    Uploaded by

    deldel deldel
    This document discusses SQL vs NoSQL databases. It provides definitions of NoSQL, highlighting that it refers to non-relational databases. The main differences between SQL and NoSQL are that NoSQL databases are better for scaling across servers and do not require predefined data models. The document also discusses various data structures used in NoSQL and considerations around structured vs unstructured data. It raises the question of whether OSEHRA should use SQL or NoSQL for its data persistence layer given needs like multiple EHR systems, data stores, cloud architecture and flexible data models.

    SQL vs NOSQL Discussion

    OSEHRA Architecture Working Group


    July 3, 2012
    SQL vs NOSQL
    AGENDA
    • What is NOSQL?
    • How does NOSQL compare to SQL?
    • Data structures and performance
    considerations
    • Why should OSEHRA care about SQL vs
    NOSQL?

    OSEHRA AWG SQL vs NOSQL Discussion July 3, 2012


    What is NOSQL?
    • NoSQL is a class of database management system
    identified by its non-adherence to the widely
    used relational database management system
    (RDBMS) model with its structured query
    language (SQL).
    • NOSQL has evolved to mean “Not Only” SQL
    • NOSQL has become prominent with the advent of
    web scale data and systems created by Google,
    Facebook, Amazon, Twitter and others to manage
    data for which SQL was not the best fit.

    OSEHRA AWG SQL vs NOSQL Discussion July 3, 2012


    What is NOSQL?
    • Definitions for NOSQL vary
    greatly from newer systems
    using document stores, key
    value stores, XML databases,
    graph databases, column
    stores, object stores, etc.
    (like MongoDB, Cassandra,
    Couchbase, Hadoop, etc.) to
    older Hierarchical systems
    that had many similar
    characteristics (like Cache
    and GT.M)
    • The NOSQL concept tree
    illustrates the variety of
    concepts related to NOSQL.

    What is NOSQL?
    Large diversity of NOSQL databases
    • Document Store
    – BaseX, Clusterpoint, Apache Couchbase, eXist, Jackrabbit, Lotus Notes and IBM Lotus Domino
    LotusScript, MarkLogic Server, MongoDB, OpenLink Virtuoso, OrientDB, RavenDB, SimpleDB,
    Terrastore
    • Graph
    – AllegroGraph, DEX, FlockDB, InfiniteGraph, Neo4j, OpenLink Virtuoso, OrientDB, Pregel, Sones
    GraphDB, OWLIM
    • Key Value

    How Does NOSQL compare to SQL?
    While there are numerous characteristics that differentiate
    SQL and NOSQL the two most significant are Scaling and
    Modeling.
    • Scaling – Traditionally SQL does not lend itself to massively parallel
    processing, which lead to larger computers (scale up) vs. distribution to
    numerous commodity servers, virtual machines or cloud instances (scale
    out).

    • Modeling – SQL databases are highly normalized and require pre-


    defined data models prior to inserting data into the system. In contrast
    NOSQL databases do not require (although they support) pre-defined data
    model(s).

    Data structures and performance
    considerations
    • Structured vs. Unstructured
    – Tables, fields, pairs vs. unstructured text
    • Transactions vs. Analytics
    • Federated vs. Persisted
    • Big Data: Volume, Variety and Velocity
    • Retrieval
    – Indexing, MapReduce, Search, Query
    • Precision vs. Discovery

    OSEHRA AWG SQL vs NOSQL Discussion July 3, 2012


    Why should OSEHRA care about SQL vs
    NOSQL?
    • Multiple EHR’s and EHR instances with different data
    models (VistA, CHCS, AHLTA, Epic, Cerner, etc.)
    • Multiple data stores (VistA CDW, VistA HDR, AHLTA CDR,
    etc.)
    • Semantic interoperability (3M HDD, SNOMED, LOINC, HL7,
    ICD 9 & 10, RxNorm, CPT, etc.), metadata and master data
    management (EMPI, providers, organizations, locations,
    devices, etc.)
    • Cloud based architecture
    • Standardized or flexible data models
    • What should the data persistence layer be for OSEHRA?
    DoD/VA iEHR?
    • Different or same application and analytic data stores?
