We recently published our paper on the first properly ACID-capable, scalable SQL solution we know of. We have worked on it for years, but we are happy with it now.
We'll give you a 1 000 € if you can disprove our paper's claims. That is, you can show that a theoretical element supporting our claim of being a scalable database with SQL-compatible consistency guarantees or the proposed combination of these elements have a fundamental flaw in it.
- zzzcpan 8y agoWe already have at least the following solutions: Spanner, CockroachDB, TiDB, FoundationDB. Is there a link to the paper though?
- andras_gerlits 8y agoThe title is a link. As far as I know, all the databases you've listed are synchronous, lock based solutions, so a single schema can't be grown to any size. Ours can.
- zzzcpan 8y agoNo, a single schema can be grown to any size in all of them.
- andras_gerlits 8y agoWell yes, technically. Correct me, but wouldn't locks be bottlenecks when scaling databases? Our solution promises the option of a single global database schema, since increasing the number of concurrent transactions wouldn't hurt performance.
