I'm agnostic between relational/non-relational.

SQL isn't for everything.

Neither is starting with NOSQL thinking it might be better and then proceeding to spend way too many man years making it a relational database, when learning a bit of SQL would have handled it fine.



The post is not against the relational model. It's against SQL.
