NoSQL databases are becoming increasingly popular as more developers seek new ways for storing information. The popularity of these databases has risen due to their flexibility and scalability needed in domains like Big Data and Cloud Computing. This paper examines asynchronous replication, one of the key features for a scalable and flexible system. Three of the most popular Document-Oriented Databases, MongoDB, CouchDB, and Couchbase, are examined. For testing, the execution time for CRUD operations for a single database instance and for a distributed environment with two nodes is taken into account and the results are compared with tests outcomes obtained for three relational database management systems: Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, and PostgreSQL.

-In this paper we will examine the key features of the database management system MongoDB. We will focus on the basic operations of CRUD and indexes. For our example we will create two databases one using MySQL and one in MongoDB. We will also compare the way that data will be created, selected, inserted and deleted in both databases. For the index part we will talk about the different types used in MongoDB comparing them with the indexes used in a relational database.

Automatic language identification is a natural language processing problem that tries to determine the natural language of a given content. In this paper we present a statistical method for automatic language identification of written text using dictionaries containing stop words and diacritics. We propose different approaches that combine the two dictionaries to accurately determine the language of textual corpora. This method was chosen because stop words and diacritics are very specific to a language, although some languages have some similar words and special characters they are not all common. The languages taken into account were romance languages because they are very similar and usually it is hard to distinguish between them from a computational point of view. We have tested our method using a Twitter corpus and a news article corpus. Both corpora consists of UTF-8 encoded text, so the diacritics could be taken into account, in the case that the text has no diacritics only the stop words are used to determine the language of the text. The experimental results show that the proposed method has an accuracy of over 90% for small texts and over 99.8% for large texts.
