The reason that RDMSes aren't dead isn't that they have too much momentum to be displaced by NoSQL. The reason they're not dead is that they're a good data model for lots of applications, and their consistency semantics and tooling provide real boosts to developer productivity.

I think that NoSQL and SQL are so much different that they will equally coexist, in the same way that languages that are used for very different purposes like Java and Javascript can equally coexist. However, it is unlikely that we have 5 different equally popular languages for one specific domain (e.g. systems programming).

I know, but around 2009/10 every hipster programmer said RD's are a thing of the past..like C like Java etc...
