There are a rash of these articles popping up. While there are usually valid points in urging people to avoid the hype of the "next big thing", a lot of these guys seem to be bitching that they might have to learn a new skill set.
I have been in this business long enough to remember Clipper and FoxPro devs bitching about SQL when it was on the rise. This sounds about the same to me.
- mpk 17y agoThese articles are just link-bait with no content. The 'NoSQL' buzzword is as distasteful to me as, say, 'cloud', but that doesn't mean that articles discussing them don't have value. The flurry of 'NoSQL' articles often cover the different approaches to data stores, their implementation, their interfaces, their management, performance, scalability, etc. That interests me, but doesn't mean I'm going to go to work on Monday and kill all the non-NoSQL dbs we have running. Hate-against-hype articles are waaaaay overrated.
