Grandparent seems to make a valid argument.
it's more like launching a shuttle mission
Given how much we spend time talking about MVPs, Lean Startup, etc, I think people on this site are trying to avoid launch a shuttle mission. [Often] They're looking at building startups and are looking for both time-tested and new-but-advantage-providing technologies and techniques. At first glance, MongoDB appears to be advantage-providing so people adopted it quickly. They didn't read the manual; they put it in production on a small site and got surprised by the lack of durability.
- edvinbesic 13y agoI agree, but if you reach that point isn't that one of those good problems to have?
- codeflo 13y agoLosing your data is never "I good problem to have". Even for a small startup, such a thing can easily kill all the momentum you've built up.
- nasalgoat 13y agoI assure you, having to spend 75% of your administration time dealing with MongoDB problems, taking you away from other critical tasks, you'll see it's not really a great problem to have.
