Would you recommend using MongoDB with Phoenix with current driver status in mind?

@svsdehh

we are using mongodb successfully. and there are probably many failures with postgres and mysql, too.

but if any one want to use elixir and can choose the database one should not choose mongoDB in the moment, as the driver support is subpar.

Hello svsdehh,

I am new to Elixir and Phoenix. And I was wondering about the status of Mongodb support in Phoenix. So far the situation doesn’t look very promising for someone who is just starting with Elixir+Phoenix. Would you recommend Mongodb as a database for Phoenix application considering the use is perfectly suitable but compatibility of the current mongodb drivers with Phoenix is a concern? A person who is just started learning Elixir is not ready to dig deeper into the framework and implement libraries like rockstar developers.

Please share your views and experience.

Thanks,
Abhay
