Nosql Distilled: A Brief Guide to the Emerging World of Polyglot Persistence, (Paperback)

from brikis98

This book is a concise and approachable look at relational and NoSql data stores. It does a great job of presenting the the underlying concepts and discussing the trade offs without overwhelming you with too much academic jargon or internet buzz words. I wish I had this intro years ago to save me...

from James.Igoe

For developers, an excellent overview and primer of the new database types. Although I think that one needs a good understanding of numerous technology-related topics, this is a fairly light introduction covering the NoSQL incarnations.

Good book to go from "What the hell is NoSQL" to "Oh. I get it. That makes sense". Indeed, in many ways all programmers are dealing with NoSQL at the Business Level. The goal of NoSQL databases is to smooth the transition to persistence.
