MongoDB: The Future of Databases?

I've been having a look at NoSQL databases recently, to see what all the fuss is about, and have become rather enamoured of MongoDB. It's early days, but I've found it to be rather intriguing. Throw away all you've learned about data storage and start afresh, storing data structures, rather than just data.

    Looks interesting, have you written any code that uses it? Nice to see Delphi drivers for it - Delphi != R.I.P. ;-).

    Google big table is another interesting structure based database:

    Bit less accessible though...

    It's not bad. I've got it installed on the laptop and working though the examples in the book. I just wanted to see what all the fuss was about NoSQL databases.
