One example where SQL looses is Graph databases, but (MonogoDB sucks here too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). Otherwise PostgreSQL rules, with current hardware you can easily fit all database in RAM. If PostgreSQL not enough, there is also CockroachDB and Spanner.

I can miss some other use cases for other DBs, like BigTable and DynamoDB etc.

PostgreSQL supports document database (XML, JSON). PostgreSQL supports key/value stores.

PostgreSQL, it's Not Only SQL :p
