In DZone's annual report on SQL v NoSQL database usage, we're excited to see that we're moving beyond that paradigm. What we're seeing in this report is more nuanced, and a lot more exciting: the death of the "SQL vs. NoSQL" binary altogether.

DZone's report finds that the use of SQL and NoSQL are neck and neck in the world of big data.

Instead, the research indicated that we're moving toward a world in which the hybrid use of both database types is becoming the norm: nearly 60% of respondents said their organizations use both SQL and NoSQL to support big data efforts.
