A HYBRID APPROACH TO DATA MANAGEMENT: INTEGRATING JSON DOCUMENTS INTO RELATIONAL DATABASES

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the theoretical foundation and practical application of the hybrid model using JSON documents in relational databases. The focus is placed on the application of this approach in a Microsoft SQL Server environment, where specific examples illustrate the differences in performance between hybrid, relational and document approaches. A key finding of this paper is the identification of the advantages and challenges associated with the hybrid approach, particularly in terms of query efficiency and modeling flexibility.
