Abstract
Becoming the backbone of some of the web’s biggest social
networks, and few others systems holding a large amount of
data, the NoSql concept stands its ground as the only
alternative to storing data beside the SQL approach. Big web
companies like Google, Amazon and Facebook developed
non-relational databases that sacrifice consistency for
availability, scalability and performance. We have developed
a social bookmarking service based on NoSql concept,
looking for performance, since expecting a large amount of
data in our hands. A system providing its users with an easy
way to organize, tag and share web content of interest.
Additionally, generating recommendations and groups of
similar web content, based on interests shown while using the
bookmarking service. In this paper we concentrate on
building a solid ground for performance comparison of two
web applications, providing the same social bookmarking
service, using a different concept to store its data. The
expectations are that the NoSql based service will provide us
with better performance that the SQL supported service. We
concentrate on the potential performance benefit, as well as
the possibility to gain additional advantage by being able to
scale our data storage on multiple servers.
