SQL is NOT always the right tool for the job.
There are plenty of situations where an Hadoop or a Storm/S4 approach works better. Again it's about picking the right technology for the task at hand.
SQL is an excellent tool for a data warehouse, or any situation where there is value in separating data design from application design. In such situations the infamous o/r impedance mismatch is arguably a good thing.
