It's not even funny how many software engineers just don't know that, SQL is crazy fast and performant, if you have basic understanding about it - I was once refactoring (or, rather, getting rid of) a microservice that was just a JSON blob storage on top of Postgres, without having any schema for blobs, with 100s of 1000s of them, no indices, and main complaint was - it's slow.
