NoSQL is one of the technical trends that rises in this context in the Web 2.0 Era. With the aim to explore the research status and development trends related to NoSQL technology, articles between 1998 and 2016 were collected from Thomson ISI's SCI. After the analysis by using CiteSpace Ⅴ, the pivotal documents related to NoSQL, as well as institutions, co-citation patterns, research hotspots and frontiers, etc., were visualized and identified.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
