Your business logic classes have 1000+ properties. And you plan to not migrate them when the schema changes but leave many instances with old versions of the schema sitting in the datastore. Your application logic is going to get nasty!



The other aspect here is that the lifetime of these objects is very brief for our application. Typically 10-60 minutes. Schema changes, while breaking, are tolerable along business cycle boundaries.


Why use SQL at all? It sounds like you needed a key value store?
