What happened to the buzz around NoSQL? - SuccessfulWorkplace

Excerpt from a timely NoSQL reality check
"Here are some of the challenges that make NoSQL’s adoption slower than expected:
  • Transactional applications are still well-suited to relational databases with all of its built-in functionality that keep transactions intact, even if the power goes off.
  • NoSQL databases are silos of their own and a challenge to move data between. Until better standards arrive, and that may be the JSON, document-based NoSQL, there’s risk of data portability with NoSQL.
  • If your data isn’t enormous, moving off a relational database isn’t a necessity. People tend to postpone big changes that aren’t a necessity."
