Sounds a little like the NoSQL trend where everybody jumped on it only to find out that NoSQL is only applicable for a few use cases.

I dont use NoSQL that much, but I also dont use relational databases much either. most of my work is in pyspark / spark on top of s3.

Not really. A few years ago there was a lot of hype around NoSQL and everybody wanted to jump on it only to find out that in many cases NoSQL didn't make anything better.

Yes I guess developers never really took to MongoDB, Memcache, Redis and such. Not to mention object stores like Amazon S3 which are also a kind of NoSQL database and are totally useless.
