If your data has a lot of structure and _relationships_, NoSQL is...<br>
less useful.<br>
<br>
I've actually seen a project where they implemented a "relational"<br>
database on top of MongoDB... It had a feature set roughly equivalent<br>
to sqlite, and half (if that) the performance, and none of the<br>
portability.<br>
