I thought nosql would make my life easier but it doesn't. Use RDMS with an upfront schema really is simpler. Yeah changes can be awkward but its worth it.

- eru 5y agoThe schema is basically just static typing for your data. So the same pros and cons as for static vs dynamic typing in programming languages apply. (As an interesting aside, I used to work with a system that had relations as in-memory datastructures. They were very pleasant to work with compared to eg Python dicts, because no single one key was privileged, like you have to do with a dict.)
