MongoDB was basically "vibe coding" for RBDMs. After the hype cycle, there will be a wasteland of unmaintainable vibe-coded products that companies will have to pump unlimited amounts of money into to maintain.


I think we mythologize the relational model a bit too much to call nosql dbs vibe coding. DynamoDB is quite good and you can point to some very large customers using it successfully.


MongoDB was bad for several reasons unrelated to the relational model.


Or we’ll just leave them behind and that’s fine. And I work day maintaining old stuff of varying quality. Conceptually, software composting.
