I wrote a blog on this here. Relatuonal solved a 40+ yr old issue, with expensive an largely unreliable hardware. Json stores and systems are there to solve 21st century issues, such as huge (Terrabytes->Petabytes) of data, and superfatst retrieval, that can change, or have omitted fields. The main stores allow the addition of machines,and upgrades to the software, with zero downtime. This can rarely be achieved with a relational setup.

However.. its still a great article.
