New tech lead pushing switching an existing product from infamously-cargo-culted MongoDB, of the much-hyped-but-now-passed Document Databases Are The Future wave, to either of a couple products in the current "X database architecture is The Future" wave? Does that not read like it could just as well be straight-faced parody, as real? The products may be fine, so far as they go, that's not what I'm trying to puzzle out here.
- xtracto 5y agoIn my experience MongoDB has only given me problems (either performance or data loss). Most likely when someone wants so "solve" something with MongoDB, there is always a better technology to do it (Cassandra, ScyllaDB, S3!, PostgreSQL/JSONB). I could Imagine that their current implementation has a half modeled graph-like structure in MongoDB and migrating to something else (I am generally against Neo4J because of their horrible pricing tiers).
