I like SQL. I've never failed to do anything with it and find it very powerful.
But while that aspect of the SQL experience I'm comfortable with, I'm still just a developer and not a DBA. I don't even _want_ to be a DBA. And as someone putting the pieces of a startup together in a country where DBA skills are practically non-existent (meaning I can't reliably train someone up myself) a cloud hosted NoSQL solution seems a much better bet on paper.
I've noticed that when the topic of SQL vs NoSQL comes up, the issue of cost of infrastructure maintenance always seems to get glossed over.
