I guess this is a Rails thing where people treat the db as a just dumb store.
- capableweb 5y agoI think I've used Rails seriously only once or twice in my professional life but yeah, mostly treat data-stores as just dumb stores in most projects, unless it has some special requirements.
- guiriduro 5y agoNot just Rails, any webdev group without the oversight of a DBA/Architect, and a penchant for simplistic ORM (mis)use plus uncorrected opinions around 'webscale' state persistence.
- Nextgrid 5y agoDo you have any resources you can recommend about using the DB for more than just a dumb datastore? The first thing I'd be concerned about is how do you manage changes? Code is easy to version control, deploy and roll-back. Database state and things such as triggers, stored procedures, etc, less so.
