I think you are reading too much into it. They never said that there would only ever be one PostgreSQL db with everything. As you point out there are advantages to separating certain functions into separate dbs, but for most businesses that

Many boosters of NoSQL forget that relational database engines are not all the same. They evolve, and are no longer the same as they were 10 years ago when people started building NoSQL engines. In particular, PostgreSQL is not the same as

Also, once you have learned Java, you don't have far to go to also learn C#. Most of the differences with C# are solutions to problems that have not yet been fixed in Java, i.e. C# is faster moving from a language design point of view.

Do you think that Camel and SOLR and Scala are worth learning? If yes, then learn some Java as well, but remember that the world of today is different than the world when most Java books were written and most Java curriculums were designed.

If I had your problem, the first thing that I would do is try PostgreSQL to see if it does the joins fast enough. Second thing that I would try is to put the data in a SOLR db and translate the queries to a SOLR base query (q=) plus filter

Caching doesn't only happen in proxies. Clients can do it too and your app is a client and should cache what it can. But the real problem with REST is round trip times and that is an artifact of REST being build on top of an RPC protoc
