RethinkDB is great. It's the first NoSQL database I've used so far which I actually liked. The query language is sane and the developers definitely know what they're doing. The realtime features are amazing and work very well with Python + asyncio.
- MrBuddyCasino 11y agoHow would you compare it to Cassandra?
- habitue 11y agoBiggest difference is RethinkDB is a JSON document store, and Cassandra is column-oriented. Cassandra is eventually-consistent, and RethinkDB is immediately consistent with all writes going through a primary node for each table. RethinkDB also has a query language that's integrated very deeply with the driver language itself, vs CQL which is a SQL-like text string.
- dalanmiller 11y agoDo you have any examples of using Python asyncio with RethinkDB?
