Thankfully we are nearing the end of the era in which "object oriented" was considered to mean "superior choice" and the veils are coming off of our eyes. Similarly NoSQL has moved on from the "neat new toy" phase in to the "deconstructing the RDBMS" phase which allows us to have our cake (SQL) and eat it too (PostgreSQL hstore and JSON support).
- dragonwriter 13y agoI don't think OO has ever really been the problem with regard to databases, or even the particular C++ and Java approach to OO, nor do I think SQL engine support for document storage apporaches is a solution any more than SQL engine support for OO structures was. The problem is developers of applications which rely on persistent data not feeling the need for a more than superficial understanding of the data storage technology they are using, which is a problem independent of programming paradigm or database paradigm or database language.
