Explain why NoSQL systems emerged in the 2000s, and briefly contrast their features with traditional database systems.

Why did NoSQL systems emerged in the 2000s?
-> The variety of new data-intensive applications and the need for rapid development led to NoSQL systems.

Contrast NoSQL systems with traditional database systems
-> Traditional database systems support strict data consistency while, NoSQL systems support “eventual consistency” which allowed for distributed copies of data to be inconsistent as long as they would eventually converge in the absence of further updates.
