I’ve been getting solidly flamed recently, as have my former coworkers at Digg, my friends at Twitter, etc. about our adoption and promotion of various NoSQL storage systems. It seems that some DBAs are very, very upset that us internet kids are considering abandoning SQL’s ship. I’m not here to throw out a bunch of insane numbers, benchmarks, or flame back, but I did want to point out why SimpleGeo and others are jumping onto the NoSQL bandwagon.
