Just wondering how you guys feel about NoSQL and I just wanted to
share the following article...

Looking to read your feedback and / or opinions.
Here's my opinion. Key-value store is NOT NEW. Calling it a new name
(NoSQL) is kind of counter intuitive for me. I've used key-value
stores since I wrote my first program in 1985.
Yep! +1
I used "nosql" back in the dos days, using btrieve running on a novell
server. Was pretty wicked fast... but... we had to store things with
horrible keys, because all the children needed the parent key + child
key + index. sucked.
I hated writing reports, alot! There was no sum or group by or joins..
ick. I never want to go back.
Moving from key/value to relational db was like moving from a tricycle
to a 10-speed bike.
