Sorry, Giovanni, you’re not correct…

SQL Database Use: 60.48% - NoSQL Database Use: 39.52%

DB Engine ranking, top 4 are Relational DBs

StackOverflow census from 2018, MySQL

Similarly to 10’s of millions of other people, we are currently using MySQL in production. It’s great, and why we have a reliable service.

Plenty of big companies use NoSQL. Yes. It’s great for specific use cases. It’s not a silver bullet, and it is really not preferable when dealing with structured data in complex systems/business software.

You said:

You will find out what I mean if you use SQL in production

…do you even know what you mean?
