Also something about Syncbase on Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cHzd8pBYmU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cHzd8pBYmU

  Hilariously awkward video. But the key points: -) All data is encrypted both on the wire and "at rest" (presumably on disk) -) All options are versioned to allow merging -) Provides builtin policies for resolving conflicts (eg last one wins) -) Handles structured data (nosql api) and binary data (blob api) -) Fine grained ACLs for permissions -) Apparently offers p2p syncing without a central server

    It's written to be security and offline first. Most systems have this bolted on afterwards which is notoriously difficult to do and never quite right. You're also missing: - a very sophisticated ACL/role model all built off cryptography that allows me to do things like grant Bob permission to watch my TV if Bob is within 100ft of a vanadium-powered Bluetooth device that can verify his proximity. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. - solves RPC in a cross-platform way, handles bi-directional steaming, and data marshaling - solves decentralized DNS using something called mounttables that can work just as well for servers in a cloud environment as routing to your IoT devices - basically reinvents how devices talk to each other in many other ways that are too much for a HN comment.
