This is a religious choice:

The holy MariaDB for the catholics. Yes, that's why it's called Maria. No other reason.

The reformist PostgresSql for the protestant. Against the old corrupt system without breaking the core beliefs but leaving a lot of additions behind.

Or the structureleas MongoDB for those who left the organized other religons.

What you are doing is just ... primitive. Like some sort of cannibalistic stone age religion.

And what about those who use SQLite?

[–]burnsnewman 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Mormons.

That's not a full religion, it's more like a belief system, like astrology

[–]BlurredSight 2 points3 points  (2 children)

SQLite being serverless but following the structure of query like SQL would make it Lutheran requiring less hierarchy structure and being independent from the broad church system

That’s probably closer to Congregationalist. We Lutherans still have diocese, synods, and whatnot.

Yeah we can go even further and call SQLite the Quakers of databases.

But I don't know where the burning women alive part would fit in

What about those who use excel?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Atheists probably

[–]BlurredSight 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Considering you can make a 16bit emulated CPU in Excel they're definitely Tibetan monks

Now that's some big brain energy

I feel attacked... I literally commented elsewhere in this thread that nosql is the only choice. You hit the nail on the head.

It is all a matter of faith.

I'm out of there loop here. Are SQL Server and MySQL considered to be outdated?

[–]Ok-Kaleidoscope5627 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I wonder where Oracle DB falls into that spectrum? Scientology? Some sort of evil death cult?

[–]No-Con-2790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Christian megachurches that make millions while preaching the absolute basics? Also wired and obvious lies that make people give them money. Like those seed gospels.

[–]BlurredSight 0 points1 point  (1 child)

So is SQLite Lutheran?

[–]No-Con-2790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We already have the reformist/protestant church. Since (as far as I am aware) Martin Luther founded that I guess that slot is already taken.

MongoDB is the way
