- nodesocket 10y agoRight that's what I was getting at, a typical web app does not and probably should not start with Cloud Spanner (ignoring the fact it costs $0.90 per hour per node). Cloud Spanner seems like it is attacking the big data market correct?
- floatboth 10y agoSomething like that. But not necessarily the Big Data that's being analyzed, that's usually done with Hadoop/Spark/whatever is the big thing now. It seems to be aimed at, like, huge apps that actually need horizontal scalability.
