It seems that after lots of hyped NoSQL systems companies are still using MySQL or Postgresql as simple storage backend with lots of custom crutches over it, like it's 2007. So all these cassandaras and riaks failed expectations?
- threeseed 10y agoThis is one of the more ridiculous posts I've seen on HN. "Companies" are taking a whole range of approaches to storing data. With a combination of NoSQL, SQL and Filesystem e.g. HDFS and everything else in between. Cassandra in particular is killing it right now under the stewardship of Datastax which is why they've grown from 1 person up to 400+ employees.
- snaky 10y agoCompanies, outside the startup scene, are still using Oracle and MS SQL Server, and for the most part are pretty happy with it.
