Wow, my experience has been a bit different. Every Java project I've worked on has been an exercise in frustration... Though a lot of the .Net projects I've worked on I can say the same.
I think that NodeJS + MongoDB has been the least resistance I've seen so far... though some of its' limitations are really frustrating (non-indexed result limitations). I like Postgres at least as much as MS-SQL Server. And the Entity Framework generators have been close to a blessing. That said, I'm much more of a fan of the DB as dumb storage, and not a big fan of SSIS. So changing from one DB to another is mostly transparent when things are how I prefer them.
