The database analogy breaks down pretty quickly though. Instead of deciding what file to put something in, you have to decide which table. And you're not going to have a single database for all your code, so you'll have to decide which database to put the code in, and which table within that database.

And I haven't even mentioned all the database types out there, relational, document, graph, time-series...
