IMS, RDBMS, NoSQL: The horse, the car, the plane
IMS, RDBMS, NoSQL. The horse, the car, the plane. They each build on prior art, they each attempt to solve certain problems, and so they’re each good at certain things—and less good at others. They each coexist, even now.
Fantastic quote from Eben Hewitt’s book Cassandra; the definitive guide found by @martinraag.
