Database choice

- RethinkDB is not a good choice if you need full ACID support or strong schema enforcement—in this case you are better off using a relational database such as MySQL or PostgreSQL.
- If you are doing deep, computationally-intensive analytics you are better off using a system like Hadoop or a column-oriented store like Vertica.
- In some cases RethinkDB trades off write availability in favor of data consistency. If high write availability is critical and you don’t mind dealing with conflicts you may be better off with a Dynamo-style system like Riak.
