It has a lot of features that aren't needed in modern application development. I just need indexible columns. Arrays were added later so you have to include a module, I mean maybe it's just a feeling but it all feels dated.
More importantly it isn't elastic. Constructing a heavy load or large database server cluster is difficult. More complicated than it should be. If there is on offer an elastic solution with simple arrays built in, I'm all over it right now.
Blob support in postgresql is seen as something you shouldn't do as a best practice. If it's a data store then what I want is to be able to use it to store data easily without a fuss. Postgresql is the king right now and I use it but I'm very open to looking at alternatives.
