Agreed. What’s worse is when they confidently proclaim that they had to scale up N times “to handle the load,” but then a brief reading of of their schema and queries reveals that an RPi could probably handle it if they’d designed a better schema, and had a basic understanding of B+trees.

A lot of SQL consultants had/have a great job going into companies having issues and producing a report of the obvious!!
