- jaclaz 4y agoIt is a long standing debate, see this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27939728 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27939728 basically it has some characteristics of a database and some characteristics of a filesystem (and a filesystem is actually a particular form of database), not entirely unlike the "over or under": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet_paper_orientation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet_paper_orientation it is an endless one, both views have their merits (but it is "over" and a filesystem ;))
