Evaluate moving to RethinkDB before going into production #41

Closed aschmoe closed 8 years ago

aschmoe commented 8 years ago

Was recently reading about how unreliable Mongo can be, thus not ideal for production (example: https://engineering.meteor.com/mongodb-queries-dont-always-return-all-matching-documents-654b6594a827#.6y2gbsgwy)

Wonder if moving to RethinkDB might be a good move before we venture into production.

It looks like it would require quite a bit of refactoring. I feel like unless it's going to give us a big win with some of the security issues we're facing, we just want to get this into people's hands as quickly as possible, and that's probably going to be with a hosted, monitored Mongo instance (mLab). Most of the realtime features of RethinkDB we're not going to need.

Yeah was more thinking about reliability at scale, but seems like that an issue to tackle down the road. Closing for now.
