> Because an SQL database uses a schema or structure, this means changes are difficult. Say you’re running a production database full of a million records.

Articles like this one perpetuate the myths in the minds of young developers. First off, “millions of records” is nothing this days. More importantly, the scheme ends up living somewhere. If it’s not in your database, you’re likely managing it in the app. There’s no free lunch when it comes to scheme for a typical SaaS.
