Fully agree with everything written here. I've spent way too much time window shopping different database technologies, which are varied and super interesting. For my little hobby project, I'm just using a few gigs of data and am sticking with Postgres to minimize complexity - PG is just such a great tool!

Since I have you here, what do you think about MADlib from Apache? Basic ML in SQL is really appealing - one of my objectives is to teach people analysis using SQL, and it'd be great to only need to develop that one skill (rather than "learn SQL and python"). https://madlib.apache.org/
