Relational Database

For decades, relational databases remained essentially unchanged; data was    segmented into specific chunks for columns, slots, and repositories, also   called  structured data. However, in this Internet of Things (IoT) era,   databases need  to be reengineered because the very nature of data has changed.   Today’s  databases need to be developed with the needs of IoT in mind and have   the  ability to perform real-time processing to manage workloads that are   dynamic.  For example, relational databases should be able to work with   real-time data  streaming and big data (an example was presented in the Unit   III  Lesson).

Scenario: Falcon Security wants their customers to be able to view security    video footage in real-time and provide customers with the ability to query   video  footage for viewing. Choosing a database solution such as MongoDB would   allow  Falcon Security to store customer video footage in the same database as   the  metadata.

To do this, Falcon Security needs a way to manage the demands of real-time    data streaming for real-time analytics. Conduct some research for a NoSQL    database application, such as MongoDB or Cassandra, that could meet this need. How would switching to a real-time database solution help Falcon Security remain  competitive? Create a PowerPoint presentation that includes the  components  listed below.

• Provide a brief introduction to IoT.
• Present the argument to the Falcon Security CEO that switching to a more dynamic database structure (NoSQL real-time database) will meet the demands of  IoT.
• Introduce some features of the database you chose, whether it is MongoDB, Cassandra, or another database.
• Describe how switching to a more dynamic database will give Falcon Security a competitive advantage.

Your presentation must be a minimum of eight slides in length with notes (not counting the title and reference slides), and you must use at least two academic resources. Any information from a resource used must be cited and referenced in APA format.
