I think that using their strengths for compatible situations is how you can provide the best value when creating a solution.

It is not by accident that all major (cloud) platforms provide both SQL and non-SQL database technology.

Mix-n-Mash to optimize your value!

I very much go along with Kyle & Edwin's points. Both DBs have their own pros and cons, and we are mostly interested in utilizing their best in our apps. I've also worked on apps that uses a hybrid of both databases, i.e. as u too specified. And it works perfectly. It's all engineering practices and this is how industries work.
