 According to Oracle’s white paper on Oracle NoSQL database, NoSQL databases are sometimes characterized by the BASE acronym [Oracle, 2011].  The Base properties are often described when comparing the trade-offs between ACID properties of a centralized relational database to cluster-oriented NoSQL database [Brewer].
A computer cluster is a single logical unit consisting of multiple computers that are linked together. Relational databases were not designed to run on clusters. Cluster relational databases work on the concept of a shared disk sub-system. The demand for NoSQL databases is driven by the need store data on clusters.When you have a cluster, you have lots of machines to spread the computation over but you have to consider that you have transfer data across nodes.
Â
The BASE acronym:
BA – Basically Available
S – Soft state
E – Eventually consistent
Â
The ACID acronym:
A - Atomicity
C - Consistency
I - Isolation
D – Durability
