With D8 I would love to see some cold hard stats benchmarks comparing mysql and mongodb storage backends for various profiles, eg vanilla D8, D8 with x content types and x nodes, or Drupal Commerce and Drupal Commons installs.
I have read some benchmarks on other mysql and mongodb projects, and I became uncertain if mongodb is really all that necessary.
I have read in many comparisons
- https://www.google.de/webhp?q=mongodb%20vs%20mysql#q=mongodb+vs+mysql
- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9702643/mysql-vs-mongodb-1000-reads
- http://www.sarahmei.com/blog/2013/11/11/why-you-should-never-use-mongodb/
that you cannot really do such thing as its nosql vs relational, apples and oranges bla bla bla. But, after all, stats matter as well and in our case we have a clear target that is Drupal 8.

fgmI think you should probably enter the discussion at #2017091: Package status and Roadmap for all branches, which you actually opened yourself. At this point, we need a direction to follow more than anything, I think. And 8.x-1.x is not really usable nor poised to be in the short term, so marking postponed until the overall situation clarifies, and requalifying as a task, because this is not really a support question.

fgmNo answer in 3 years, and 8.x-1.x has been broken since 2014 anyway, so marking outdated.
