Also, according to the Gora about (http://gora.apache.org/about.html), "data modeling in NoSQL data stores differ profoundly from their relational cousins. Moreover, data-model agnostic frameworks such as JDO are not sufficient for use cases, where one needs to use the full power of the data models in column stores. Gora fills this gap".
However, DataNucleus seems to successfully use JDO for persistence to NoSQL datastores. Therefore, I am a little confused. Could someone elaborate more on why JDO is considered not to be sufficient for NoSQL use cases?
