TEMPORAL DATA MANAGEMENT IN NOSQL DATABASES

Temporal data management is recognized concept of managing data that changes over time. Traditionally, a temporal data management system (TDMS) was considered separate system, i.e. an extension of the traditional relational database management system (RDBMS). Recently a non-relational database, called NoSQL, has become quite popular for scalability and storage of big data. Even with this new approach for managing data, temporal data management is still a work in progress. This paper provides an overview of temporal data management and NoSQL databases. Also, temporal data management is discussed within the context of NoSQL databases. This paper concludes with observations and suggestions for future research.
