### SQL vs. NoSQL

SQL is not the only tool for managing and analyzing large amounts of data. As described above, SQL databases store data in tables using a rigid schema. This works well for many applications, but larger, more complex projects may benefit from the more flexible approach provided by NoSQL databases.

NoSQL databases are diverse, employing a variety of data structures tailored to specific use cases, but in general provide a scalable way to store, search, and establish relationships within large datasets that cannot easily be represented by a rigid, tabular schema. A more thorough discussion of the differences between SQL and NoSQL is beyond the scope of this lesson, but curious readers can start with [this comparison](https://www.mongodb.com/nosql-explained/nosql-vs-sql) by MongoDB, a NoSQL database vendor.
