There’s people who think using a database as a queue is bad, but if you keep pressing then for tangible reasons, it usually turns out to be emotional …… they just don’t like the idea.
Next time someone says it’s a bad idea, keep pressing for real answers, not emotion.
- bokohut 5y agoThere is a lot of ignorance around all topics but in technology it seems to be more pronounced if only because I have personal and professional interest. I felt inclined to support 10x0five in his statement as my own experiences are identical as it relates to storing files in a database. There were, and likely still are, those that proclaim over and over to never store serially linked chunked data in a database, aka files, yet after building and proving a model in production long before today's tech that stance has seemed to change. The benefits far outweigh the costs when having everything in a database which is comparable in today's uptake of putting everything under version control. Fear not what others judge about your ideas as this should just be more motivation to "press for real answers" proving yourself correct.
