Is there a customer management system built on NoSQL?


Hi all,

We are so used to seeing customer management/relationship management systems built using traditional RDBMS. I was wondering if there are any projects that used NoSQL instead. I was curious to know how this typical business process of associating everything to an 'account' table could be done within a different paradigm.

Tks

I run an IoT company where we do customer management without any special RDBMS system at all, I just built an HTML interface into the JSON API which in turn is mostly exposing a key-value store.

Not sure if this would qualify as a full blown customer management system though, although it does covers concepts like Customer, Gateway, Device, Payment, Notifications / Alarms, Support incidents.

Currently this has almost only a single-company use, but I would love to see other use the same concepts.
