NoSQL Data Modeling for Scalable Apps NoSQL databases come in several flavors. The key idea for scalable apps is to design around how you will read data, not only how you store it. By aligning the data shape with real access patterns, you can keep reads fast and writes predictable even as traffic grows. Document stores are a popular starting point.
