What is the difference between SQL and NoSQL databases
  • SQL (Structured Query Language) databases are relational databases that store data in tables and rows. They use predefined schemas and are ideal for applications requiring complex queries and transactions (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL).
  • NoSQL databases are non-relational and do not require a fixed schema. They are designed to handle large volumes of unstructured data and are more flexible, scalable, and suited for modern web applications (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra).
