> That's just up to how you model your data. Well, a NoSQL database forces you to reduce or eliminate relations, whereas an RDMS allows and encourages them. Sure, theoretically, you can make an RDMS database without relations, but it goes against the standard design methodology. You can be sure that if you implement an RDMS in a large organization, relationships between tables will seep into your schema. With a NoSQL database, that's pretty much impossible.
