    This isn’t YAML, this is just sparkling JSON

    Maybe use a real database for that? I’m a fan of simple tools (e.g. plaintext) for simple usecases but please use appropriate tools.

      What is wrong with a file for this? Sounds more like a local log or debug output that a single thread in a single process would be creating. A file is fine for high volume append only data like this. The only big issue is the format of that data.

      What benefit would a database bring here?
