@maiyannah Eh, I like to hate on Mongo as well but to be fair there are cases where it's actually the right tool for the job. The big problem with Mongo (and NoSQL in general) is that people seem to be really bad at recognizing where it's the best choice and where it isn't. And to be frank I can't think of a situation where I'd say without hesitation that Mongo is the right choice. I can think of situations where a relational database might no longer suffice (very write heavy large scale applications) but even in such situations the most positive of Mongo I'll get is "include it in your thorough investigation of alternatives based on your particular need".
