NOSQL databases

hi guys

I wanted to gain some knowledge on NOSQL databases like google's bigtable and couchdb,mongodb,ect
They are gaining extreme popularity due to their speed and performance.
Does anyone have any practical experiences to share.

Be forewarned that that contains some salty language that may not be suitable for listening in your work place :)

I have developed several MongoDB applications using NoRM, however your question is a bit too vague to offer helpful suggestions.

You could try starting with http://www.nosqlweekly.com/ which usually has some useful info.

This article is from the above comparing multiple nosql databases

Thx for the links however I would like to read
some personal experiences. Since you have
worked with mongodb can you tell me

What performance benefits does nosql database provide
compared to traditional db?

 how it is different from a SQL based database?


Again I would like to read your personal real world experiences.

Thanks
