since i've seen it brought up twice, iirc mongo has an option to save direct to disk to allow for power failure and such. however, since there are hadoop, mongo, couch, redis, and dozens of lucene based solutions, maybe a payment system should be more db agnostic unless you want to alienate people?
i'd think you'd want to a pluggable tool chain type solution. so you say you need some basic schema information, an express type middleware processing solution (process tax, process s/h, inventory logic, warehouse scheduling, reciept, update user profile) and a (err, cb) for each step. if you mandate i use couch, mysql, pg, ora, or anything else, i won't use it. i won't bother learning it because even if you like the same db as me, maybe next week i'll talk with someone that says "i've got x db" - if you didn't program for x db (or i don't like x db), i'm going to refuse $$.... i don't think so.
