Understand the Differences Between NewSQL and Distributed SQL
Blog post from Yugabyte
Distributed SQL databases have emerged as a new evolution in transactional databases, differing significantly from both NoSQL and NewSQL solutions. With its horizontal scalability, continuous availability, and multi-cloud deployment options, distributed SQL offers several advantages over traditional database architectures, including ease of use, improved performance, and reduced downtime during maintenance tasks. It is particularly well-suited for modern applications that require high availability, low latency, and the ability to move data across different environments, making it an attractive option for companies adopting a multi-cloud strategy or those looking to improve their edge computing capabilities. By providing a unified data store across environments, distributed SQL databases can help organizations overcome challenges such as application growth, always-on business, app mobility, next-gen edge computing, and microservices, ultimately enabling them to build a data-centric business that is ready for any future scenario.
