JSON data type for columns?
Quick search seems to indicate this is a common request? Is there really no way other than converting JSON to text, to store this in a collection? It seems to lead to a lot of fragmentation, and our nosql approach seems to bloat out with lots more tables, relationships and fetching related data to reconstruct the desired object.
TL;DR
Developers are asking if there is a JSON data type for columns. Storing JSON as text can lead to fragmentation. NoSQL approach bloats out with more tables.
