open source which is its greatest strength but at the same time, it can be considered as its greatest weakness because there are not many defined standards for NoSQL databases; so, no two NoSQL databases are equal. 2. No stored procedures in Mongodb (NoSql database). 3. GUI mode tools to access the database is not flexibly available in market. 4. It is so difficult to find NoSQL experts because it is the latest technology and NoSQL developers are in learning mode [5, 6, 10, and 11].Differences between Relational Database and Big DataPersonal user information, geographic location data, user-generated data and text, machine-logging data,sensor-generated data, and satellite images are just a few examples of the ever-expanding
