I'm an engineer and I agree with Swizec and mathgaldiator. As an engineer I see great value in abstracting layers until any specification or detail is needed. If NoSQL as a term helps me convey a meaning of "newish edgy non relational datastore" then the term serves it's purpose, the same way people used Web 2.0 to describe pretty gradients, huge plasticky buttons, and shinny bubble navbars. It may seem like a fad to most people but it still is the easiest, shortest way to describe a group of aesthetics, use cases, or features in only one word. Think of it this way: We do it all the time with races, skin colors, and religions. White, Black, Muslims, Christians, Latinos, Asians... RDMS, and NoSQL... |
