Developers everywhere have embraced document databases. But in many cases, it’s for the wrong reasons. Take the current hype around going schemaless — it’s almost too easy to store arbitrary JSON or XML in a document database. But if you expect to filter, modify and retrieve it efficiently, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment.
