Who wins in 2024? MongoDB vs PostgreSQL full comparison!

[@Jelvix]

What data challenges did you throw at MongoDB/PostgreSQL? Tell us your stories! ☺

[@bphilsochill]

Just a note, around 2:00 you mention that Mongo is more simple, and Postgres is more complex. The diagram contradicts that. Just leaving this here in case you feel compelled to revise this.

[@Jelvix]

Hi! Thank you for your feedback and attention!

[@swamidasdalvi4845]

Obviously they don't feel compelled to thus far and it is 8 months past ur comment 😂

[@monicasmith6007]

Hey! Thanks for your content, it's so cool! My company opted for MongoDB for our rapidly growing startup due to its scalability and cloud-native features. The flexibility was crucial for iterating on our data model as we learned more about our users. ;)

postgresql supports jsonb

I recently migrated from mongo to postgres, a multi-million records database. Postgres is way faster and you have the ability to use the functionality of a relational database, making it much easier for developers to extract data.

which one is better for student to prepare for job

[@Jelvix]

Hi! It depends on the job you're targeting. PostgreSQL is a powerful relational database that's widely used in industries where structured data and complex queries are important. It's often preferred for positions in data engineering, back-end development, and systems where data integrity is crucial. MongoDB, on the other hand, is a NoSQL database that excels in handling large volumes of unstructured data, making it a great choice for modern web applications, real-time data, and big data environments. It's popular in start-ups and tech companies that prioritize flexibility and scalability. If you're aiming for positions in companies that work with large, structured datasets, PostgreSQL might be more relevant. But if you're looking at roles in modern web development, data science, or big data, MongoDB could be a better choice.

and Postgre is not horizontally scalable?

[@Jelvix]

PostgreSQL is not natively horizontally scalable in the same way as some NoSQL databases like Cassandra or MongoDB. However, it can achieve horizontal scalability with the help of additional tools and architectures

[@Avo7bProject]

Just about any database will become complex with time, and need intricate security levels. PostgreSQL comes out ahead in this high level comparison - but maybe not everybody can afford a badass central server after a period of growth... or they really hate to look at SQL. (Yeah, SQL is very "1970s" looking. Fortunately it's a good, portable language to be familiar with.)

I am currently trying to migrate from firebase to postgresql. This has solidified that

[@drasticfred]

All assumptions far from true, mixed with numbers based on factual data (that is good) however content creators assumptions contradicting each other. No mention about Postgresql extensibility, namely extension realm, which is the Postgresql's killer feature.

[@Jelvix]

Thank you for sharing your feedback!

[@jfbaro2]

Can you re test with the newest versions?

[@Jelvix]

Hi! Thank you for idea, we will discuss it with our team!

[@jiminnovator1556]

Great video! As a Python developer, I initially leaned towards MongoDB for its flexibility and ease of integration with frameworks like Django. However, for my current project involving complex financial data analysis, PostgreSQL's robust relational structure and SQL capabilities proved invaluable. Ultimately, the choice depends on the project's specific needs. 🤖

[@SkillGuy]

Thats great I wanna master both of them.

[@Jelvix]

That's cool! We wish you good luck in it!

[@SkillGuy]

@@Jelvix Tnx

Great content For Me im sticking to MONGO DB

[@emi6029]

One scales out horizontally and for processing large amounts of data while the other doesn't. So, not much benefit with the one which scales vertically. MongoDB all the way!!!!!

[@SoM3KiK]

You can also scale postgres horizontally

[@Jelvix]

Great point! MongoDB's horizontal scaling is a strong advantage for handling large amounts of data across distributed systems. On the other hand, PostgreSQL shines with vertical scaling for complex queries and transactions in relational databases. It really comes down to use cases and priorities.

[@leve6467]

this kinda video is quite misleading

[@Jelvix]

Hi! Thank you for watching out video! We would be grateful for more detailed feedback so we can discuss it with out team
