> stated reasons are wrong and that Uber had some ulterior motive > What's the motivation to lie? You're right. Uber didn't have to publish anything. In all of the discussion regarding, I don't think anyone has tried to imply that Uber is lying about their reasons for switching. If that's how you read what I wrote above, that was not my intent (indeed, I tried very hard to make clear that isn't the case.) That's different from the position that Uber, given their resources, likely could have gotten Postgres to work in their environment if purely the Postgres issues they described in the article were why they chose to use MySQL. Again, I don't think anyone is accusing Uber of lying about or obscuring the reasons they switched from PostgreSQL to MySQL. At least I know I'm not.
