Databases: 2021 in Review and Predictions for 2022
I keep reaching for SQLite and it keeps working. Although I've been needing a better review of what other embedded databases I should be considering in 2022. I tried Genji[1] recently and tore it out as it wasn't doing ORDER BY with multiple columns.

Looking for: library to turn SQL (or abstracted) to code & execute against custom backend (slice of structs)
Use sth like https://github.com/genjidb/genji, which is an embedded DB with SQL

Another option could be also Genji - https://github.com/genjidb/genji

Alternative to MongoDB?
There is Genji, this is a document-oriented embedded SQL database written in Go. It's still a work in progress though, but it looks great!

How to run WebAssembly from your Rust Program
Apache CouchDB belongs to the family of NoSQL databases. It is a document store with a strong focus on replication and reliability. One of the most significant differences between CouchDB and a relational database (besides the absence of tables and schemas) is how you query data. Relational databases allow their users to execute arbitrary and dynamic queries via SQL. Each SQL query may look completely different than the previous one. These dynamic aspects are significant for use cases where you work exploratively with your dataset but don't matter as much in a web context. Additionally, defining an index for a specific table is optional. Most developers will define indices to boost performance, but the database does not require it.

Erlang: The coding language that finance forgot
I just turns out you can't always do that in a real codebase. For example see here:
