NoSQL is faster than SQL for access, talking like 10x faster. Which makes sense if you think about what it is.

Very true with maintainability - it's ridiculous to use a NoSQL as your main db eventually because of duplicate data and the very large file storage.

You'd use neither of them with certain math or AI (they use vector dbs optimized for array data) - different tools/jobs.

Do you have a source about the 10x speed gain for NoSQL? It doesn’t really make sense to me and the benchmarks I found say it’s about the same, which makes sense to me.
