On certain databases, yes
We only scanned for firestore, which is a NoSQL database, conversion tools may still be possible, a good firebase alternative would be https://supabase.com https://supabase.com, but please set up RLS, its IMO much easier then Firebase.
- necovek 3y agoWouldn't it be easy to migrate a NoSQL database to Postgres without any adaptation? Postgres is an "object database", so you could use Array, JSON or JSONB fields wherever necessary, and you shouldn't introduce any foreign key relations or such.
- xyzeva 3y agoIt would, except if you have a f'ed up schema like most of these companies had.
- marcosdumay 3y agoThe point is that Postgres has no problem at all with a fucked-up schema. You just tell it not to check a thing, and it won't check a thing. But then, I may be underestimating how fucked-up things are.
