The NoSQL event has triggered a bit of a hard time for the RDBMS the last week.  I won’t add any commentary as this follows what I have been talking about for a while, but here are some of the links.  Most notable is Michael Stonebraker’s post on the ACM site.

• The End of a DBMS Era (Might be Upon Us)
• Relational databases are dead -- who knew?
• No to SQL? Anti-database movement gains steam
