Transactional cloud databases come in all shapes and sizes, from simple key-value stores to planet-scale distributed relational databases. Here’s how to choose the right cloud database for your ...

The key is the name, and the value is the content; for example, the key might be CITY, and the value might be CHICAGO. A key-value database is a set of key-value pairs. Variables Are Key-Values ...

Key-value A key-value database is one of many not-only SQL (NoSQL) databases with a single schema consisting of keys and values, where you can look up the value if you know the key.

Enter the key-value store. It’s essentially a NoSQL database, but one with a highly specific purpose and a deliberately constrained design.

Lucky for us, [Marcelo Barros] decided to share his own implementation, Kved (key/value database) which uses the flash memory instead for such storage.

We look at key-value storage, which promises much greater I/O efficiency and longer flash drive lifespans, but may be constrained by limited use cases and lukewarm productisation efforts.

Oracle is introducing version 4.0 of its NoSQL database. First introduced in 2011, the Oracle NoSQL Database is a key-value database that evolved from the company's acquisition of BerkeleyDB Java ...

Key-value stores store, retrieve and update data using simple get, put and delete commands. The path to retrieve data is a direct request to the object in memory or in storage using the key.

In Key Value data stores, data is represented as a collection of key–value pairs. InfoQ spoke with Casey Rosenthal from Basho team about data modeling when using Key Value NoSQL databases.

Key value databases are the least complicated of all data management structures. This post is one of a series that introduces the fundamentals of NOSQL databases, and their role in Big Data Analytics.

“It’ll be customers buying, for example, a cloud database service with key-value hardware acceleration, or they’ll buy their own stack and provide key-value acceleration,” said Tomlin.
