Not keen on your data store choice. Mongodb introduces a lot of other problems. The problem with schemas is an easier one to solve imo

Fair point, although we didn't choose MongoDB just because of schema handling. We've been using MongoDB in production since 2013, so it was a natural choice since we already know a lot more about it than any other database.

For the problems you're mentioning, what we've seen is that many people use it incorrectly, and we're building the framework in a way that prevents that in the app layer. But still curious about your experience - what are the biggest problems you've had in production MongoDB?
