Amen to that.

I find it very frustrating dealing with developers that treat the database as a bit bucket (or persistant storage device in Java terms).

If you need a bit bucket, roll your own. It can be a -lot- faster than a RDBMS and is a heck of a lot cheaper.

Of course, only after doing this and running into brick walls (a bit bucket ain't no database), they start to appreciate what a RDBMS offers.
