So, is there a downside to MongoDB? Why isn't thios as widely spread as SQL?

I forgot to mention that Mongo is much faster than SQL.

• Mongo or NoSQL in general is much newer than SQL. SQL has been around for ages.
• Some people don't like change. Migration is costly and hard in most cases.
• Mongo is about availability of data whereas SQL is about consistency i.e: ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation & Durability)
• A lot of tutorials will get programmers using SQL initially, i.e PHP tutorials

Very interesting to read. I'm known with SQL but never heard of MongoDB. It sounds like this would not be a quicker way to store and retreive data, but that's probably my lack of knowledge on the matter. I think it's great that you guys are doing all you can to stabilize the server and its database. Shout out to @Tom for coming up with a solution that improves the performance!

Will the previously established 2fa's still work, or will we have to link it again? And do you have an update on the staff portal?

 

Anyhow, good work! 

Mongo is advantageous because it:

• Scales when server loads increase.
• Scales horizontally rather vertically making it cost effective.
• Stores unstructured data so developers can quickly prototype
• Supports nested data, i.e arrays, objects within objects.
• Natively supports the JSON data format, which decreases conversion overheads.
