"While not comprehensive, the uses for NoSQL databases center around the acquisition of fast-growing data or data that does not easily fit within uniform structures."
There were 2 parts in the statement about NoSQL's uses. I'll start with the latter:
"data that does not easily fit within uniform structures" - NoSQL is probably the right choice, hmm although I always encourage thinking and architecting in advance. And also online structure changes do exist in the RDBMS world and recently in MySQL: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/innodb-online-ddl.html...
I would definitely warn about the caveats of NoSQL when it comes to actually use and query the data that is so easily stored there...
"acquisition of fast-growing data" - is no longer a no-go for RDBMS and MySQL database. Distributed RDBMS solutions do exist today and they can exploit performance and scalability from the good old MySQL itself
What do you think?
