I guess there are more NoSQL database available. Then again...I am going to focus on these four. Hopefully by next week, I can run some test on these databases on my Xenserver VM.
Meantime..I have to do some reading.. and re-program my brain from SQL to NoSQL... ...Eventual Consistency.---.Eventually it will be consistent..
