Answer
NoSQL often handles high transaction volumes better.
For systems with high transaction throughput, NoSQL databases like MongoDB or Cassandra may offer better performance due to their ability to scale horizontally. However, they might sacrifice ACID compliance, which is critical for financial transactions. Java applications interacting with these databases can use specific drivers or ORMs to handle data efficiently.
