PostgreSQL with JSONB columns seems to have beat them to the race by quite a wide margin. MySQL too, for that matter.

I do really enjoy using Postgres for a hybrid approach, using a jsonb field to store a bunch of data about an object. It works very well, and query speeds are great since you can index fields.

We use PostgreSQL with normal cols and JSONB columns, as well, which works wonderful. High speed, high flexibility, and all the transactional quarantees Postgres gives you.

Also, we can use SQL.
