As I further known that RethinkDB company were disbanded. Does RethinkDB is a long term choice to be used in such as a good library? (Just my confusion, not about library bugs or other issues).

When I selected the DB backend at the start of the project in 2014, RethinkDB looked like a good choice: it had clustering out of the box, it scaled really well, its NoSQL had joins. Yes, in 2018 it does not look as good - the company is gone. On the other hand it's still supported as a part of Apache Foundation, commits are still flowing, bugs being fixed: https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb.

MySQL is also supported.
