SQL++ originated from research in the FORWARD project at UC San Diego, and it has much in common with SQL; some differences exist due to the different data models that the two languages were designed to serve. -SQL was designed in the 1970's for interacting with the flat, schema-ified world of -relational databases, while SQL++ is much newer and targets the nested, schema-optional -(or even schema-less) world of modern NoSQL systems. +SQL was designed for interacting with the flat, schema-ified world of relational +databases, while SQL++ generalizes SQL to also handle nested data formats (like JSON) and +the schema-optional (or even schema-less) data models of modern NoSQL and BigData systems. In the context of Apache AsterixDB, the query language is intended for working with the Asterix Data Model ([ADM](../datamodel.html)), a data model based on a superset of JSON with an enriched and flexible type system.
