In the past, a benefit to using non-relational databases (for example, NoSQL) was its simple and flexible structure. If the data was structured, a relational database was deployed. If it was semi-structured (for example, JSON), a NoSQL database was deployed.
Today, a relational database like MariaDB Server (part of MariaDB TX) can read, write and query both structured and semi-structured data, together. MariaDB Server supports semi-structured data via dynamic columns and JSON functions. This blog post will focus on JSON functions with MariaDB Server, using examples to highlight one of they key benefits: data integrity.
