    MongoDB is used at my work but because of my role I don’t have to interact with it. I don’t know much about it but apparently row entries don’t have to conform to schema too strictly or something like that. Is that correct? Also they have a weird license.

      It has some neat caching features, but like pretty much all non-SQL dbs, they fail the ACID tests and aren’t too good for data integrity. I remember trying to get foreign key type constraints working like they should was awful.

    The feeling when you don’t get it not because of the MongoDB, but because you don’t know Snapchat 😁.
