If you want them lat/lon:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.1.0&request=GetFeature&typeName=
<yourlayer>&srsName=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG:4326
If you want them lon/lat:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.1.0&request=GetFeature&typeName=
<yourlayer>&srsName=EPSG:4326

The PostGIS store is the most mature one, the SQLServer one is "last kid on
the block", but growing.
If you look for free support the first has a higher chance of getting
answers (more people using it, more devs
familiar with it), if you look for commercial support both are well
supported
