Practical example from the last ~8 months. I started building my somewhat non-trivial Saas [0] with MongoDB + NodeJS. Getting started was quick. Soon however, things started playing up: - transactions - aggregations (avg, percentiles), rollups etc. - simply having a relational model to express the business domain I switched to Postgres and I've been more than happy with it. Heroku hosting is top notch. Libraries are pretty mature. I use the JSONB and Array datatypes not heavily even. Turns out an "exact" data model is quite useful on anything none-trivial. As always, YMMV [0] https://checklyhq.com https://checklyhq.com

  And he answered it, with the answer being "no".
