Advanced Indexing Strategies In YugabyteDB For Improved Performance
YugabyteDB offers two query APIs, YSQL & YCQL, both enforcing ACID properties, but with different performance & features for relational & NoSQL applications.
The two query APIs in YugabyteDB are YSQL, which is compatible with PostgreSQL, and YCQL, which is compatible with Cassandra. It's important to note that the choice between these two APIs does not imply any specific SQL vs. NoSQL behavior, as both enforce ACID properties. YCQL can be used with Cassandra applications and drivers, providing better performance, consistency, and features than Cassandra. YSQL can be utilized for relational applications and also supports adding documents (PostgreSQL JSON and JSONB) and text search (with pg_trgm extension), which utilizes Generalized Inverted Inde...
