My background
there are hurdles for adoption in academia
Why is there slow adoption?
Why is there slow adoption?
"need IT support for heavier work": set up MongoDB server => what if need sharded cluster? => investment from IT "creating legacy": if it's something that will be used after you're gone, you don't want to use a technology that is not supported or actively used within the organization
Why is there slow adoption?
Not really tab-delimited anymore because too structured Self-taught => simple scripting languages!
Would benefit most. "bench-based scientists": are more and more learning perl and working with tab-delimited files to go to database: json looks more like how they think than having to cope with normalization steps in a relational database
