Take a look at CockroachDB, which had its first public beta earlier this year [1]. It's directly inspired by Google's F1 and Spanner projects.
It's similar to FoundationDB (the Apple product you're referring to) in that it's an SQL database layered on top of a K/V store. It's based on some clever technology to accomplish distributed transactions, strong consistency and high availability, and is looking very promising.

- nickpsecurity 10y agoAppreciate the tip. Im aware of it. They had a recent post on HN where they were just getting around to dealing with stability issues. I was really excited till I saw that. Im holding off for a while till it matures a bit.
