Relational is super handy. Very easy to report on and do various things down the road. If all he needed was session id, sure, NoSQL is more or less the same. But what about when he adds other fields that are related? Say customer address or reports or .... His life may very well be easier with relational. You should generally start relational. Then branch out if you are hitting the brick walls of relational. People using NoSQL for a 100MB database are making their life SERIOUSLY more difficult than it needs to be. (I have done it before, not fun). |

I don't know if it is that easy to scale once you realize that the demand is growing, see my other reply here:
