"Very compelling reasons" means different things to different people. Which i suppose is a catch 22. The young but introspective dev may make the wrong call on a side project and learn to stick to psql in the future.
The dev who is convinced "web scale" will arrive before their first AWS bill and picks Mongo as their production database will have a worse fate. As will their team and company by proxy.
Rule #1: Always start with PostgreSQL. You don't have a compelling reason not to.
- webninja 8y agoIs there a nice web interface that is made for PostgreSQL? I’m in love with the power that PHPMyAdmin brings to MySQL. Also there are DigitalOcean Ubuntu droplet images with it all pre-configured.
- h1d 8y agoIt always feels way snappier to use a local GUI connected through SSH than PhpMyAdmin and its interface also feels very cluttered to me.
