This was just an experiment to learn about NodeJS
and MongoDB
. I haven't made these choices based on some specific requirements.
For your question I suggest to looks for articles and discussions about "SQL vs NoSQL".
As a general advice I would say that if you don't really need NoSQL features (like dealing with unstructured data) - prefer simple SQL databases.
