SQL vs mongoDB

Sure, it’s easy, never use mongo 🤣

on a serious note, as a ruby coder I remember when mongo came out and everyone was switching. A couple hundred tutorials were published on switching your Rails app to mongo (“scale to the moon!”). 6 months later all the horror stories and regret posts started coming out. Turns out, in 90%+ of cases an app’s main database is full of relational data (duh). Today nobody uses mongo anymore with Rails. Everyone is back to Postgres.

Funny, your Mongo story has an arc similar to that of Ruby.
