> I wouldn't post this in the future. It's irrelevant. I meant to draw attention to the HN user comments on that story, not the actual story itself :) Edited to make that clear. I do believe the HN comments about data inconsistency, duplicity, using a NoSQL solution where an RDBMS makes more sense, are all relevant. Here's another quote from that discussion thread. > Sometimes the TV show start and end dates would be milliseconds since the epoch, some would be dates in YYYY/MM/DD formatted strings. Some would be dates in DD-MM-YY formatted strings. All scattered randomly throughout the data store. Elastic schema means random schema.
