SQL is pretty horrifying when you start getting tree structures or recursive structures. While Datalog handles those like a champ.
SQL is really nice for columnar data, and it's well supported almost everywhere.
Though Datalog isn't half bad at columnar data either.
I like SQL more when working with tabular data (especially for analytical use cases), but that has (thus far) dominated the kinds of work I've done.
