I'm seeing this a lot with SQL it seems. ANSI SQL has been a thing since 1986, and SQL itself having been invented in the 1970s. With the boom of JavaScript on the client, various forms of NoSQL came into existence. Recently, the HN frontpage has open source SQL management studios, Sqlite articles, and Node frameworks for directly executing SQL in JS. It almost seems as if the greater development community is catching up to why these things have been done this way for a long time. People seem to be getting really interested in SQL, maybe because they are at a point in their careers where they are being exposed to it more and the benefits relational models can offer. I'm not debating the benefits of one over the other, just that as trends go, SQL seems to be cool again.
