> at least with Mongo, you just end up putting your schema in your app I do this all the time, but I think it's a good thing. When rapidly prototyping it's nice to be able to just write up a few classes to define the necessary data types -- which is exactly how most SQL ORMs work, but Mongo's big advantage is that those classes can be totally rearranged without having to do migrations or go in and mess with underlying table structures. When SQL is really necessary, those classes are usually easy to translate to use something like SQLAlchemy.
