Suitability of NoSQL Solutions

Monty Taylor:

Point being - when I rant about the suitability of NoSQL solutions, I’m mainly complaining that in many cases it seems to me that they’re using them because they’re popular or trendy and not because they are or are not actually suited to the task at hand.

The other way around is even more valid and I’d say it applies more often: RDBMS was used in some many cases just because it was around for such a long time.
