is schemaless still the db now?

  No idea, but I would wager so. The scale it was being used at would be hard to replace, and they'd have little reason to do so. EDIT: To be clear, there is no "the DB" at Uber. It was the main database flavor that the larger teams used, but they used everything at Uber, from MySQL to postgres, to mongo, etc. Sometimes with things on top, sometimes directly. For more analytical/financial things, they used HBase/Hadoop/Cassandra, or even older things like old IBM database tech from the 80's. Really weird mix of stuff, and it really depended on which high-profile engineers they hired in which part of the company.
