> Mongo is great for when you're rapidly developing a product and/or still operating at a small-medium scale.

Yesterday somebody from a node-based consultancy gave a talk at work about microservices, where he remarked in passing that they tend to start projects with mongo, then wait for a schema to kind of 'fall out' of the application as it takes shape, and then switch to postgres or something. Which doesn't seem like an awful idea.
