Drupal 7 Module Development has a couple of good chapters on developing modules that create and use entities, and there is another book out there on Drupal 7 Entities that I have yet to tackle. I would also love to see something that shows how to implement "No SQL" high demand Databases like Mongo or Cassandra. While I know I'm missing lot's on these newer flavors of database systems, I can't help but wonder if Drupal will ever run on a "No SQL" platform, or if that is where we are all headed. First glance suggests that perhaps Entity Classes will provide the keys to transitioning.

Not sure what you mean here. Are you talking about writing code using the drupal database API db_query, etc.? If so Drupal Pro Development is a good start. Perhaps you’re talking about using working with external non-drupal databases? Or something else?

Does anyone know of a good book covering how to work with databases and drupal?
Thanks
