Hello,

thanks for the awesome roadmap.
I've taken a deeper look into DB-related info, and would like to propose some modifications.
Most NoSQL DBs stated are Document-related DBs :
MongoDB, CouchDB, RethinkDB, DynamoDB...

Later in the graph, we can see other mentions such as search engines, and Graph DBs.

I would recommand removing names and stating different "kinds" of NoSQL databases, instead of names.
Beware: RethinkDB is both a document database and a "realtime database" like Firebase, however the company died a couple years ago and the community project is almost dead. Wouldn't recommend anyone investing on it nowadays.

Proposition:

NoSQL Databases

• Document (MongoDB, CouchDB...)
• K/V Datastores (Redis)
• Column (Cassandra)
• Timeseries (InfluxDB)
• Realtime DBs (Firebase, RethinkDB)
• Object Storage (S3, Ceph...)

Thanks for the suggestion Loïc - it makes sense. I have made some changes in the 2021 version to accommodate this
