The great thing about schema-less databases is you can put any old thing in there. The bad thing is at some point you have to get it back out again.

Nah, slap a 'Data lake' label on it and call it a day

The video's suggestion of /dev/null makes that super easy.

The best thing about MongoDB is that you can stop using it completely and switch to PostgreSQL, which will happily accept all the horrible JSON data you can cram into it.

We still quote this video nearly daily at work. Luckily I don’t have to deal with mongodb anymore.

"...If there's a problem writing your data, you're fucked. Does that sound like a good design to you?"

"If that's what they need to do to get those kick-ass benchmarks, then it's a great design."

Oh God. I am laughing so hard watching this.
