Acquiring data in MySQL

With the volume and velocity of data, it becomes difficult to transfer data in MySQL with optimal performance. To avoid this, Oracle has developed the NoSQL API to store data in the InnoDB storage engine. This will not do any kind of SQL parsing and optimization, hence, key/value data can be directly written to the MySQL tables with high speed transaction responses without sacrificing ACID guarantees. The MySQL cluster also supports different NoSQL APIs for Node.js, Java, JPA, HTTP/REST, and C++. We will explore this in detail later in the book, however, we need to keep in mind that using the NoSQL API, we can enable the faster processing of data and transactions in MySQL.
