MongoDB Announces Acquisition of Voyage AI for $220M

MongoDB is not the same as Postgres and jsonb.

also, I'd challenge your thinking - ultimately the goal is to solve problems. you don't necessarily need SQL, or relations for that matter. that being said, naively modeling your stuff in mongodb (or other things like dynamodb) will cause you severe pain...

Then your implementation can be as simple as CREATE TABLE documents (content JSONB);. But I suspect a PK and some metadata columns like timestamps will come in handy.

sigh - mongoDB is not the same as creating a table with jsonb. for one, you don't have to deal with handling connections. that being said, postgres is great, but it's not the same.

Postgres has ways to simplify connection management, if that is a blocker for you (pooling, pgbouncer, postgrest, etc)
