Put nouns, metrics, and transactions where they belong.

Stop forcing every product concern into one relational model. Separate flexible platform nouns, analytical signals, and transactional guarantees—then hide storage behind stable contracts.

What you will leave with

A three-lane data decision model your teams can apply immediately.

Documents for nouns and operational state

Analytics for metrics, events, and attribution

Transactional systems for strict financial or workflow guarantees

Provider portability behind one contract

Why this matters

Classify the workload before choosing the database.

The durable decision is the contract and workload. MongoDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, object storage, and analytical engines are replaceable implementations.

01
Nouns belong in documents: Model products, projects, tenants, apps, and resources as flexible documents with facets, expiry, and policy-aware access.
02
Metrics belong in analytics: Send volume, latency, attribution, trends, and behavioral events to systems designed to aggregate them.
03
Transactions stay transactional: Use explicit transactional boundaries when correctness depends on atomic state changes and durable consistency.
04
Files belong in object storage: Treat binaries as governed resources linked to identity and document metadata—not database blobs by default.
