Yeah, I’ve never seen any complex applications, using ORM’s, that were easy to port to another database. Hell, one company I was at switched from MySQL to MariaDB and even that took some work despite that they should be almost the dame thing. If you switch to a more substantially different database, eg, from MySQL to Postgres, then its even harder. I’m also a believer in using a databases features when it makes sense and not limiting myself to the standardised subset of SQL just in case I might want to change databases later.
