Funny. I was just this joking this morning with a colleague about using Postgres for everything.

Considering adding mongo for unstructured data? Just use postgres jsonb.

Building a search index? Postgres is fine too.

Considering using redis for fragment caching? Just use an unlogged table in postgres with key value columns. Need pub/sub? Well just use postgres listen/notify.

Using postgres for everything has served me very well.
