- weego 13y agoSince when does every use of a database involve handling datasets in a way that needs experience and "algorithms". A key value store can be used as... a key value store if need be. It doesn't need to be crazy science.
- Argorak 13y agoOnce you start scripting your K/V store, its not a simple K/V store anymore. I am not against databases with scripting capabilities and I do not think javascript/front end developers are per se naive, but I've far to often seen the naive assumption that just because its javascript, everyone can handle it.
- jmcdonald-ut 13y agoThis isn't true. Once you have tens of thousands of records, a poorly written algorithm or data structure is going to lead to O(n^2) behavior. That hurts. Even small sites can hit this amount of database records with ease.
