Session data. NoSQL isn't meant to be a catch-all solution, and it's certainly not meant to be the only database you use in a complex project. It's meant for data that you really wouldn't mind losing that you have to access a lot. Normally, that's temporary data in an app that might require it on every page view— recently viewed items, sessions, shopping carts that aren't saved for later, etc.
