Denormalized schemas have similar performance profiles to document-oriented storage. Moreover, mainstream SQL databases like Postgres are getting better and better at indexing jsonb fields, indexing time series data with BRIN, rudimentary full-text search, offering a one-size-fits-all storage system that may not be the best at everything, but will be good enough to support a growing business to its next funding round.
