But they don’t replace RDBMS. They replace what RDBMS don’t do well. When Dr. Codd wrote the relational concepts in 1969, hierarchal database were the norm, and accounting systems were the primary systems using a database. ACID and structure were critical. The RDBMS is great for maintaining an ACID driven, absolute relationship. Key-value is great for finding text based relationships. Like any tool, use both wisely for what they do well, not as a Swiss army knife. You are right on, key-value, Hadoop, Cassandra, etc. are a must. But they don’t replace RDBMS.
