title: When can I save JSON or XML data in an SQL Table
body: <p>When using <code>SQL</code> or <code>MySQL</code> (or any relational DB for that matter) - I understand that saving the data in regular columns is better for indexing sake and other purposes...</p>
  
  <p>The thing is loading and saving <code>JSON</code> data is sometimes a lot more simple - and makes the development easier.</p>
  
  <p>Are there any "golden rules" for saving raw <code>JSON</code> data in the DB?</p>
  
  <p>Is it absolutely a bad practice to do so?</p>
