It took me several days of working with Cassandra until I could wrap my head around it. I have been working with data in relational sets for so long that the notion of working with a non-relational database seemed like reading Chinese. But I'm happy to say that I picked it up much faster than I would have become fluent in Chinese!

Non-relational data is not better or worse than relational - it's simply solving a different type of problem with a different approach.
