Ask HN: Is MongoDB ever the best choice?
Many of us have written off Mongo for a while. I don't even really give it much consideration anymore. The open-sourcing of Parse Server reminded me that people still do use Mongo to successful effect, but would it ever be your first choice?
I there a use case out there where the answer is definitively, "Yes, you should use MongoDB"?
- gjmulhol 11y agoMongoDB is web-scale.
- drittoperdritto 11y agoCan you elaborate on that ?
- innocentpixel 11y agoIs there a use case out there where the answer is definitely "No, you should not use MongoDB"? Yes.. there is. And so are other use cases where you have a multiple choice answer, mongo being one of them.
- feedjoelpie 11y agoRight, so is there a subset of those multiple choice cases where Mongo is best?
