I can see everyone's extremely happy about this, which is great. As someone who's never used it, I'd like to know more about FoundationDB and how it compares to other offerings such as MySQL or Postgres, and which use cases is it most suited to. I would especially love to hear the thoughts of those with direct experience of using Foundation DB. Thanks!
- degenerate 9y agoSeconding this. Instead of hearing from bloggers or contributors, what is using this DB like in the trenches? What simple use case would fit this DB perfectly? Is there a lot of setup on second/third deploy? Easy to maintain, or requires a lot of tweaking/tuning? How is memory usage with 10M records? 100M?
- rando444 9y agoPersonally I'd be more interested in hearing how this compares to other distributed noSQL implementations like Cassandra.
- roboyoshi 9y agoIt probably is better, because Apple switched from Cassandra to FoundationDB, according to all the rumors http://www.businessinsider.com/why-apple-bought-foundationdb-2015-3?IR=T http://www.businessinsider.com/why-apple-bought-foundationdb... . But as we know Apple they probably won't tell us.
