That's all I'll say on the subject. I'm not trying to start a long
discussion that will all end in tears.
I do agree, I hate relational DBs. The problem is that I still
didn't find any other persistent store that:
1) Can scale and handle high load (in a real environment, not just
on the spec sheet);
2) Is affordable/free;
3) Integrates well with powerful frameworks like WO.
When something comes up that meets these criteria, I will move on
the first day. I feel the same as you, it's incredible how little
databases have evolved in the last decades. But if making a good
alternative was easy, we would have lots of them around, I guess.
