Things they don't tell you about MongoDB
- preech99 13y agoError establishing a database connection Lol
- interstitial 13y agoSeriously, the algorithmically generated headline program, could automatically stage and generate common error connections and drive the HN crowd nuts.
- yeukhon 13y agoHacker news is a good tool to use to test your site's scalability. Lol
- Tarang 13y agoI hope this site's not built on SQL if you're trying to throw a jab and mongodb.

- 7Figures2Commas 13y agoYes, because everybody knows that, unlike a RDBMS such as MySQL, NoSQL databases like MongoDB can handle any volume of requests on whatever hardware you have available and without any fine-tuning of configuration.

- davidbanham 13y agoAt first I thought the error was a beautifully crafted satire. Sadly, not
- JetSpiegel 13y agoThere is at least one of this posts every week, I'm still waiting for the one that's really satire.
- bmelton 13y agoA few years ago, I remember a site that, you selected which database system you used (e.g., Oracle, MySQL, PostGreSQL, etc.) and it would spit back the most likely error you were to receive when using it. I can't find it at the moment, nor can I find a combination of terms to search for that gets me any closer to finding it -- but if somebody else remembers it, then maybe you'll get that satire after all.
- Lazare 13y agoHmm, possibly this: http://adambard.com/blog/what-your-datastore-says-about-you/ http://adambard.com/blog/what-your-datastore-says-about-you/ > MongoDB: We haven’t picked a database yet. So much truth. :)
- bmelton 13y agoHilarious, but not the link I was thinking of. In the link in my brain, you were asked to pick the database. I remember distinctly having to click through to find out what the error was for each one.
- Lazare 13y agoYou know, I think I saw that too. If it was the one I'm thinking of, the results were memes. I vaguely recall the one for couchdb being something like a cartoon about um... "no SQL? so how do I query it?" "You don't; you write a distributed map/reduce function in Erlang." "Did you just rell me to f*ck myself?" "I believe I did, Bob." ...or something like that. Damnit, you'd think that'd be specific enough for google to turn up something... Edit: Woot, dbarlett got it. I think I was failing due to my incorrect recollection that it mentioned mongo and couch, and not nosql in general.
- interstitial 13y agoWasn't this one of the algorithmically generated headlines?
- webtrill 13y agoPlease stop posting these. Nothing new in the post. Yes, MongoDB is overrated. Documents store should be capable of doing a whole lot more than MongoDB offers.

- tylerlh 13y agoI really hope you don't actually represent these folks, because you just made yourself look like a real ass.
- webtrill 13y agoThat's your view and maybe a few others and everybody is entitled to their own view(s).
- sehr 13y agoPossibly the most blatant advertising I've ever seen in an HN comment. At least put a bit of effort into it.
- nacs 13y ago"For the “Lightning Consult” plan it costs US$ 450,00 per hour, and you have to buy at least 2, so it cost at least US$ 900,00 to any company. " At first I thought they were charging 45 thousand an hour till I clicked through to Mongo's page and realized author is using the Brazilian/European commas instead of periods (price is $450 an hour).
- webtrill 13y agoSometimes, free can be very expensive.
- kicolobo 13y agoI didn't expect so much traffic on my blog! :) Well: I think that things will normalize now. (at least I hope!)
- Sembiance 13y agoMongoDB's limitations have been well publicized over the past few years, but if you need another reason to avoid using it, take a look at which bug tracker they use (https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-3110 https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-3110). JIRA. You simply can't trust code coming from a team that uses JIRA as their bug tracker.
- cmicali 13y agoJIRA can a great tool, but that has nothing to do with mongodb nor the quality of the code the team produces.
- Sembiance 13y agoI used JIRA for a number of years on a daily basis and it is easily the worst bug tracker I have ever used. I would choose any other bug tracker I have used over JIRA any day, even BugZilla. The connection to mongodb is that their team chose JIRA and continue to use JIRA. I was implying that by choosing such a horrible bug tracker that you must question their code for mongodb. In retrospect I probably should have added a smiley face or not made the comment at all, since it's entirely possible they didn't have a choice in the matter and JIRA was chosen for them by a pointy haired boss. After all, I was forced to use JIRA at my previous job and the quality of code I produced and technical decisions I made were not affected by choice of bug tracker. So to any mongodb devs reading this who may have been offended, I am sorry and I feel your pain in having to use JIRA, I hope you can escape it soon :)
- voltagex_ 13y agoI think it might be a case of JIRA is the worst, except for all the others (Ever used TFS2010?)
- deleted 13y ago[deleted]
- redwood 13y agoCurious what you recommend for a large project? I also don't love JIRA but wonder, really, if there's any perfect solution...
- memset 13y agoI will second RoboMongo being my go-to frontend. (Half the frontends recommend in the mongo docs are defunct!) It's really quite hard to be PhpMyAdmin as a very useful universal db tool. I will also unabashedly plug my own budding frontend, which I strongly encourage all of you to take a look at and help flesh out! https://github.com/classicspecs/Flask-MongoMyAdmin https://github.com/classicspecs/Flask-MongoMyAdmin
- voltagex_ 13y ago> (Half the frontends recommend[ed] in the mongo docs are defunct!) That sounds like someone needs to open a pull request on the docs.
