I do not like NOSQL because I think relationally, but I've come to a
realization due to remaining open to them:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
Aggressive use of views in database-driven apps will lead to code that
is easily selected via a simple [mod://SQL::Abstract] call AND the query
language
for SQL abastract is very similar to what you might use in a NOSQL
tool like Redis or MongoDB, thus making the transition easier, if it
becomes necessary
</BLOCKQUOTE>
Instead of having Perl code with complex SQL, the views immediately
make
your pure SQL simpler. Then you get away from SQL altogether with
views
and then you make your move to the performance advantages of NOSQL
easily.
