Whatever you like. But you won't even see the CR, all you do is create 
your objects and they magically persist...

Ok, if your data is not tree like, and you have a lot of it, you would 
probably use a traditional database. Currently no abstraction is 
planned, except for a mapping of "legacy" databases into the CR. That 
would not help, if you need a relational view.
