I get the feeling that many people do not even know what problems databases solve. It seems to be common to treat them as an extension to the application's memory that somehow isn't lost between restarts, and the properties, operational caveats and other capabilities of the database are not even considered.

So true. I see a lot backend candidates these days who learned only how to use the ORM of their framework of choice, plus migrations, and that's it.
