      Getting Drupal to run on No SQL really isn't all that bad. That
      big thing will be getting all the contributed modules out there to
      do their queries in a way that can easily be translated over to No
      SQL. You start throwing things like map reduce and aggregation
      into the mix, and that is enough to put off some module
      maintainers. <br>
