Exploiting Information Centric Networking to federate NoSQL Spatial Databases

This paper explores methodologies, challenges and expected advantages related to the use of the Information Centric Network (ICN) technology for federating NoSQL databases. ICN services allow simplifying the design of federation procedures, improving their performance, and providing so-called data-centric security. In this work present an architecture able to federate NoSQL spatial databases and evaluate its performance, by using a real data set within a heterogeneous federation formed by MongoDB and CouchBase database systems.
