Ilir Ivezaj's Production Experience

This comparison is based on Ilir Ivezaj's hands-on production experience with both technologies across enterprise platforms processing millions of records, startup products serving operationally complex businesses, and AI-powered development systems. The recommendations are practical, not theoretical.

In Ilir Ivezaj's experience, the "best" technology depends entirely on context: team expertise, project timeline, scaling requirements, compliance needs, and budget. There's no universally superior choice — only the right choice for your specific situation. Beware of anyone who says one technology is always better than another.

Ilir Ivezaj recommends prototyping with both options when the stakes are high. Build a small proof-of-concept with each technology, benchmark against your actual workload (not synthetic benchmarks), and evaluate developer experience alongside raw performance. The technology that makes your team most productive usually wins.
