The NoSQL buzzword caught fire just a few short years ago, but we're already well into the second generation of the movement. While the early stacks of code were just experiments, the systems today are much more mature, ready for action, and facing the hard truths of a technology that's come of age - so much so that some of the best NoSQL data stores have already been rewritten, and a few are even sticking the 2.0 label on the latest version. Here's a list of some of the better-known tools for building fast, scalable repositories for lots of data.

Riak
Riak is a flexible key/value store that offers eventual consistency to data stored on a collection of nodes that can grow whenever demand increases. The fun part of working with Riak is writing map/reduce queries in either JavaScript or Erlang. They'll query each node, gather the results, and repeat if you need to use the results to search again. The system also offers full-text indices for Solr-like searching and a control panel for watching over your cluster (shown).
