Scenario Rationale
Rapid Growth & Massive Scale Applications that need to handle high volumes of traffic or petabytes of data and require horizontal scaling (e.g., social media feeds, large-scale IoT data ingestion).
Flexible or Evolving Data Your data structure is unpredictable, changes rapidly, or includes a variety of formats (e.g., user-generated content, product catalogs where different items have different attributes).
Unstructured/Semi-Structured Data Storing documents, sensor data, log data, large media files, or data that naturally fits a nested, hierarchical structure (like JSON objects).
High Availability & Speed Over Consistency Applications where downtime is critical and eventual consistency is acceptable (e.g., caching layers, real-time analytics, content delivery networks).
