Comment on Do you need separate systems when you already have Postgres?parent

Wild statement, imo. There is no better open source database, so I'm very curious what you prefer and what your use cases are...

It's boring but the last thing you want is excitement over data that's important to your business!

All the eng. managers I've worked with in the last decade have sworn by Postgres, in the decade before that they were swearing at mongo and getting betrayed by Arangodb switching to a restrictive license and seeing other innovative databases going down the same path means for new side projects I go postgres.

Depends on what you want.

Postgres doesn't do replication, HA or columnar/OLAP workloads, for example.
