should I just use sql and serialize the nested stuff as json and call it a day?

[Luke Sleeman]

We recently performed some evaluations on various SQL and no-sql solutions for a new android app.

In the end we settled on room - there doesn't seem to be a compelling nosql solution at the moment

so json strings inside it for nonconforming data?

[Luke Sleeman]

No, we are decomposing things down into different tables, with relationships between them, etc. This is so that we can query for things properly. If its just a big blob of json, then we won’t be able to access it by SQL
