Discuss what is NOSQL?
    A NoSQL database is a type of database designed to store, retrieve, and manage unstructured, semi-structured, or structured data in a non-tabular format, unlike traditional relational databases (SQL databases) that use tables with rows and columns.
    Key Features of NoSQL Databases:
    • Schema-less: No fixed schema, allowing flexible data models.
    • Scalability: Horizontally scalable (distributed across servers).
    • High Performance: Optimized for fast read/write operations.
    • Distributed Architecture: Supports large-scale distributed data.
    • Variety of Data Models: Supports documents, key-value pairs, graphs, and columnar storage.
    NoSQL is suited for::
    • ✔ Big Data & Real-Time Apps (e.g., social media, IoT)
    • ✔ Flexible & Evolving Data Models
    • ✔ High Scalability & Performance Needs
    • ✔ Distributed Cloud-Based Systems
