AFAIK The reactive part is not that easy to with Mysql et al - sure, you can hack around stored procedures, UDF and such, but it's far from being elegant. If you "think in SQL", then of course nosql seems to make everything difficult, but in reality, you're just taking back some of the logic and heavy lifting from the DB server in exchange for more freedom/scalability, which may or may not be something you want. |

I 'think SQL' all day, or at least a simple subset of it, and I need to learn more. It's paying my bills as a .NET/JavaScipt dev, you know? I'd like to integrate it into my hobby projects. But I'm gonna watch that video linked above and see what it sells me. I certainly don't have any innate resistance to thinking of data as (basically) JSON arrays. I love that. We use that sorta stuff all the time at work, passing data back and forth, to and from the core client JavaScript functions.
I just can't shake the notion that NoSQL is so popular because SQL just is NOT. And I get that: SQL is freaking complicated once you get to the parts that make it so powerful. But maybe that's all a misunderstanding on my part.
