Polyglot is here. It creates opportunities for a lot of folks. And it creates a lot of headaches for others. The open source NoSQL analytics project, SlamData, will reduce a lot of the friction described in these comments. I work on the project.
Three things to know:
1. SlamData is souped-up SQL + data viz platform.
2. SlamData send analytics to the data (computation happens in-database)
3. SlamData connects to MongoDB, Couchbase, MarkLogic, Spark and relational stores.
4. You can do JOINs across data stores
Four things, sorry.
If you want to know what's going on across a polyglot business or application... it's exponentially easier now. So go ahead and use the new technology -- the overhead isn't nearly as much as it was. I think this materially changes the conversation.
