How's that relevant? You're neither lead architect nor does your employment at MySQL / Oracle mean anything. Many incapable developers score positions at big companies. Without facts, maths and measurement you can be Linus Torvalds for all I care. The article at the URL provided is simply marketing ploy. I'm experienced enough to notice what's wrong with the comparison, but I won't take that article apart to prove anything. If you believe Mongo is a product that helps you - perfect. Now, if you're thinking you'll convince me that it's great by berating another great product - well, that raises a red flag. Who says I've to use a single software vendor anyway?
it was the reference to me as "You're a prime example that this new-age bullshit works and that's what's worrying". The same statements were leveled at anyone from mysql 10-15 years ago. I'm glad mysql works well for your use-case
