FerretDB, a truly open-source MongoDB alternative

Since FerretDB is built on top of Postgres, could it be an extension? So that one can mix some FerretDB tables and some general SQL tables in the same database (with proper foreign key constraints between them etc)

Yes, building an extension is something we are looking at, and I am glad to hear that you would be interested in this kind of mixed use case. Would definitely make things interesting, and more performant.

Pretty exciting!

What about optionally validating some columns with jsonschema? Perhaps using https://github.com/supabase/pg_jsonschema - is using other postgres extensions supported in FerretDB? (if not, maybe it's feasible to incorporate the code of pg_jsonschema in FerretDB?)

Yeah, that's planned: https://github.com/FerretDB/FerretDB/issues/77
