SQL vs. NoSQL Databases: What’s the Difference?

Why is this even on HN? There's no reason to debate this, it's a content marketing fluff piece for a company that has no technical pedigree, written by a freelance copywriter rather than an engineer.

It's also about 50% wrong. Let's just move on.

On some level I'm glad it is:

Things your boss or client will read, quickly turn into things your boss or client will say. I would rather be prepared for the wacky misinformed conversation that will happen, it helps keep down the laughter and frustration.

And on that theme, then get ready for when your boss gets to the part about how NoSQL gives you:

"Rapid development. If you’re developing within two-week Agile sprints, cranking out quick iterations, or needing to make frequent updates to the data structure without a lot of downtime between versions, a relational database will slow you down."

Reminds me of this classic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2F-DItXtZs
