    9. What is the primary use case for Document Data Stores?
    10. Describe a scenario where Key-Value Data Stores would be the best choice.
    11. Mention two popular NoSQL databases used in industry.
    12. How does MongoDB store and retrieve data?
    13. What is HBase, and what type of NoSQL database is it?
    14. Describe the key features of Neo4J.
    15. How do Document Data Stores handle schema changes?
    16. What are the common operations performed in Key-Value Data Stores?
    17. Explain the concept of sharding in NoSQL databases.
    18. How does MongoDB achieve high availability?
    19. Describe the architecture of HBase.
    20. What is the primary advantage of using Neo4J for graph data?

    13 Mark:
    1. Discuss the evolution of NoSQL databases. Explain the factors that led to their
    development and how they have transformed data storage and management.
    2. Compare and contrast the four main types of NoSQL databases: Document Data
    Stores, Key-Value Stores, Column Family Stores, and Graph Databases. Provide
    examples and use cases for each type.
    3. Explain in detail the architecture and data model of MongoDB. How does MongoDB
    manage scalability and high availability? Include a discussion on its replication and
    sharding mechanisms.

    1
    4. Describe the architecture of HBase. How does it differ from traditional relational
    databases and other NoSQL databases? Discuss its data model, storage format, and
    use cases.
    5. What is Neo4J, and how does it handle graph data? Discuss its architecture, query
    language (Cypher), and key features that make it suitable for graph-based applications.
    6. Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of NoSQL databases compared to
    traditional relational databases. Discuss scenarios where NoSQL would be preferred
    over SQL and vice versa.
    7. Describe the concept of scalability in NoSQL databases. Compare vertical and
    horizontal scaling, and explain how NoSQL databases achieve horizontal scalability.
    8. Analyze the performance characteristics of NoSQL databases. Discuss factors that
    affect performance, such as data distribution, indexing, and query optimization.
    Provide examples of performance tuning techniques.
    9. Design a NoSQL database schema for a real-world application, such as an e-commerce
    platform or social media network. Explain your choice of NoSQL database type, the
    schema design, and how it meets the application's requirements for scalability,
    performance, and data consistency.
    10. Case Study: Choose one NoSQL database (MongoDB, HBase, or Neo4J) and provide an
    in-depth analysis of a real-world application that uses this database. Discuss the
    application's requirements, how the NoSQL database was implemented, and the
    benefits and challenges encountered during implementation.

    15 mark:
    1. Explain the principles and challenges of data consistency, availability, and partition
    tolerance in distributed NoSQL databases. How does the CAP theorem influence the
    design and architecture of NoSQL systems? Provide examples of how different NoSQL
    databases prioritize these principles.
    2. Discuss the differences between schema-on-read and schema-on-write approaches.
    How do NoSQL databases implement schema-on-read, and what are the advantages
    and disadvantages of this approach compared to traditional relational databases?
    Provide examples to illustrate your points.
    3. Detail the process of designing a NoSQL database schema for a content management
    system (CMS). Consider the types of data, the relationships between entities, and the
    need for scalability and performance. Justify your choice of NoSQL database type and
    explain how the schema supports efficient data retrieval and storage.
    4. Analyze the role of indexing and querying in NoSQL databases. Compare and contrast
    indexing techniques used in Document Data Stores (like MongoDB), Column Family
    Stores (like HBase), and Graph Databases (like Neo4J). Discuss how indexing impacts
    query performance and provide examples of common query patterns and optimization
    strategies.
    5. Evaluate the use of NoSQL databases in big data analytics. Discuss the integration of
    NoSQL databases with big data processing frameworks like Apache Hadoop and

    2
    Apache Spark. Provide examples of use cases where NoSQL databases enhance the
    capabilities of big data analytics, focusing on aspects such as data ingestion, real-time
    processing, and analytics performance.
