Not only SQL injection – non-relational repositories
The term NoSQL has been debated over the years. Someone, probably not careful enough, would tell you it means No SQL, as in there is positively nothing SQL-related about this matter. While it is true that such databases use different approaches from the relational model (as we saw in Chapter 1, Structured Query Language for SQL Injection), some underlying logic is shared. The term NoSQL stems from the need to underline the differences with respect to the dominant database model. Going on, the term NoSQL, due to the fact that it generates some misunderstandings, is less preferred to the more general term non-relational, or no-rel for short.
As we already mentioned in Chapter 1, Structured Query Language for SQL Injection, the principles of SQL injection also impact, in some form or another, databases that do not incorporate SQL or the relational model. A trivial explanation is that the principle of injection, as it happens...
