django-hstore

Requirements Status

You need dynamic columns in your tables. What do you do?

  • Create lots of tables to handle it. Nice, now you'll need more models and lots of additional sqls. Insertion and selection will be slow as hell.
  • Use a noSQL database just for this issue. Good luck.
  • Create a serialized column. Nice, insertion will be fine, and reading data from a record too. But, what if you have a condition in your select that includes serialized data? Yeah, regular expressions.
