NoSQL is a collection of data items represented in a **key-value store**, **document store**, **wide column store**, or a **graph database**. Data is denormalized, and joins are generally done in the application code. Most NoSQL stores lack true ACID transactions and favor [eventual consistency](#eventual-consistency).

**BASE** is often used to describe the properties of NoSQL databases. In comparison with the [CAP Theorem](#cap-theorem), BASE chooses availability over consistency. **BASE** is often used to describe the properties of NoSQL databases.
