# Hasura + NoSQL (JSON)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mongo is awesome because:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. It is super flexible and developers decide what to do as their requirements change. Eg: All types of read models with varying degrees of normalization. Writes can have different types of guarantees of consistency that allow developers to control how fast or slow writes are.
|
||
|
|
2. Reads & writes are super fast, easy to vertically and horizontally scale, easy to shard and geo-distribute.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
What Hasura needs to make Hasura + Mongo awesome:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Support modeling and querying nested (embedded) documents well since that is the dominant pattern
|
||
|
|
2. Support relationships on complex LHS arguments (nested objects/arrays) with native & awesome mongo ways:
|
||
|
|
- `$lookup`, `$unwind`: similar to joins
|
||
|
|
- `$graphLookup`: recursive join! great if we can bring that value to the fore :)
|
||
|
|
3. Support aggregation pipelines in parameterized models
|
||
|
|
4. Other R&D ideas that need significant guidance from mongo users/customers:
|
||
|
|
- Help data/schema migration on mongo
|
||
|
|
- Support denormalized writes?
