#219: In a world overflowing with data, traditional relational databases struggled to keep up with the demands of scalability, flexibility, and performance. Enter NoSQL, a groundbreaking approach to database management that shattered the limitations of the past.

In this episode, we talk with Matthew Groves, Product Marketing Manager for Couchbase, about his thoughts on SQL (the language), where you should actually start programming if you’re new to the industry and why conferences and user groups are starting to make their return.
