Databases
Vask Infotech utilizes a variety of advanced database technologies to provide scalable, reliable, and efficient data storage solutions for businesses. Databases form the backbone of applications, handling everything from customer data to real-time analytics. The choice of database technology depends on the specific needs of the business, such as the volume of data, the required speed, and the complexity of queries.
Relational Databases (SQL)
Overview:
Relational databases are based on a structured schema where data is stored in tables with rows and columns. SQL (Structured Query Language) is used to manage and query these databases.
Key Features:
MySQL:
A widely used open-source relational database known for its simplicity, reliability, and speed, particularly for web-based applications.
PostgreSQL:
A powerful open-source database that supports both SQL and JSON queries, ideal for applications requiring complex queries, analytics, and integrations.
Oracle Database:
A robust and enterprise-grade database, often used in large-scale operations like banking and e-commerce.
NoSQL Databases

NewSQL Databases
Overview:
NewSQL databases combine the benefits of traditional relational databases with the scalability of NoSQL databases. They are designed for applications requiring high availability and fast data processing, while also ensuring transactional consistency.
Key Features:
Google Spanner:
Google Spanner is a fully managed NewSQL database offering horizontal scalability and strong consistency across globally distributed environments.
CockroachDB:
CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database that offers automatic scaling and robust consistency across global deployments.
Graph Databases
Overview:
Graph databases store data in the form of nodes, edges, and properties, making them ideal for applications involving complex relationships and interconnected data, such as social networks, recommendation engines, and fraud detection systems.
Key Services:
Neo4j:
Neo4j is one of the most popular graph databases, widely used in applications where relationships between data are crucial.
Amazon Neptune:
Amazon Neptune is a fully managed graph database service that supports both property graphs and RDF (Resource Description Framework) graph models.
Time-Series Databases
Overview:
Time-series databases are specialized databases optimized for handling time-stamped data, such as sensor data, application logs, and performance metrics. They are typically used in monitoring solutions, and real-time analytics.
